Nantucket New School is a co-educational day school serving students in pre-school through grade eight. Within a warm and nurturing school community, our program encourages academic excellence, respects the pace of childhood, and seeks to instill in our students curiosity, creativity, and a lifelong love of learning. In creating strong partnerships between school and family, we foster kindness, self-confidence, self-knowledge, and social responsibility.

We believe that a small school is uniquely equipped to meet the individual needs of students and their families. A low student/teacher ratio provides opportunities for us consistently to recognize each student as a person and as a learner. Essential to our success are strong student/teacher relationships, as well as partnerships between teachers and parents, creating a family atmosphere where students of different ages are able to interact cooperatively on a regular basis. We believe in and are committed to purposeful involvement in the unique community that is Nantucket and seek to build a student body that reflects the changing diversity of the island.
