High Outcomes. Low Stress. Re-Inventing Education.

In our work with universities and companies, students adopt a growth mindset as they work on research projects and acquire real-world skills.

Recent research projects include: Trout in the Classroom, Identity Development Study, Parent-Child Mentalization Study, and the BrainCo FocusCalm Neurofeedback Study.

Our innovative educational methods and approaches have opened up a rare opportunity for our students to benefit from neurofeedback through the FocusCalm Neurofeedback Study. Incubated in the Harvard Innovation Lab, BrainCo develops cognitive training technologies.

At Memorial Private School, we use their FocusCalm phone app and headband to help students learn how to train their brains to move into a state of calm and sharper focus.

Based on neuroscience research, we have intentionally created a low-stress learning environment for college prep students or students pursuing other future paths.

From the caring faculty, friendly students, strong focus on compassion, it is no wonder students find a sense of place at Memorial Private School. Students ease up on themselves, lower their stress, alleviate anxieties, and flourish. Small structured classes, individualized support, and peer group learning create a relaxed place for students to mature intellectually, socially, and spiritually in our microschool environment.

Explore and Experiment!

Unlike many independent college prep private schools, Memorial Private School offers both a life and college preparatory education for middle and high school to build confidence and social interaction skills.

As pioneers in the creation of our microschool, we have built an infrastructure to facilitate and cultivate healthy social interaction in the classroom setting.

We offer a full academic year program, as well as summer classes for college-bound students. While some students aspire to attend a college or university following high school, other students make different choices.

While the priority for some students is to work on improving their grades, to gain membership into the National Honor Society, and even take Advanced Placement (AP) or Honors Courses, we understand this path is not for every student.

For this reason, we emphasize a wider perspective, one that incorporates life preparation. Our students adopt a growth mindset as they learn to research, explore, experiment, and become lifelong learners.

Students acquire the skills to lead, work in teams, communicate effectively, manage their time effectively, set goals, and become independent and responsible individuals.

Our traditional values help students strengthen their character, so they are equipped to navigate life with a sense of purpose and meaning.

I have never had high grades like this before. My parents are so proud of me being an “A” student and I am proud of myself for working so hard. Vivian, Student
