Memorial School

Touchstone has experienced a lot of change over the past five years, not to mention Covid. The new head of school has a long history with Touchstone, as a parent then a teacher, and has worked tirelessly (and I mean TIRELESSLY) to bring TCS back to its roots in progressive, joyful, challenging, emotionally sound education. We were already thrilled with our child's experience in the Nest (prek/k - Sheryl and Nancy are the best!) and then Covid hit, and we have felt so cared for by the head of school and the entire faculty and staff. They adjusted so quickly to continue to provide education in line with the school's mission and have discovered so many new ways to help children thrive, both because of and in spite of a pandemic. I think the school has experienced some growing pains, but have truly been able to be reflective on what needs improvement and is actively working to make TCS the best school that it can be. This includes professional development for teachers, more supports for students in need, and a renewed commitment to eco-literacy. If you have any thoughts or wonders about Touchstone for your child, I would highly recommend to just come and see for yourself! Take a tour, hear children laughing, see teachers connecting with students, feel the joy. You'll be so glad you did.
