Oakwood School

Many staff members connect with students in meaningful ways even if they do not hold traditional teaching roles. Computer teacher and A/V guru, Damon Falconer, for example, teaches Jujitsu to high school students.




	A faculty member once wrote... "This is a special community. Our school is intellectually demanding but at the same time it holds humanitarian values at the core of its educational philosophy. Those who lead are willing to take risks, to continually reexamine the school's goals in the face of changing educational and global issues. Faculty are limited only by their imaginations - and that results in classes which are rich, exciting, and varied." To read more...

As is consistent with our philosophy, the most effective teaching and learning comes from feeling a sense of ownership and genuine relevance.

	Our faculty is deeply committed to working in partnership with students, and is keenly aware of the valuable contributions each young person can bring to a classroom conversation, town meeting, or other area of school life. Teaching at Oakwood means devoting oneself to the mutual exchange that takes place between teachers and students � the understanding that teaching and learning are inseparable, reciprocal processes, and that human relationships are at the heart of that exchange.
