About
Feynman School is an internationally recognized school for gifted learners. Our experienced teachers recognize that gifted learners are bored by repetition but joyful and motivated when learning something new. We offer favorable student-to-teacher ratios; place no ceiling on academic achievement; and provide authentic learning experiences within a supportive environment in which learning is interdisciplinary, hands-on, and fun. Upon graduation, Feynman students are prepared to excel at the area’s most elite private high schools and public magnet programs. We emphasize higher-order critical and creative thinking, social-emotional development, collaboration, and effective communication. Feynman’s close-knit community promotes student success. Here, students build lasting relationships with intellectual peers as they embark on a journey of talent development and creative production. As one graduate puts it: “Feynman is about more than just a better future; it’s also about a better today.”
