Overview

Community service at Town School begins with a recognition and understanding of the concept of community. The boys are taught about the community that exists in the classroom, the school, the broader community, and the world at large. The essence of the community service program at Town is to provide an experience so positive and meaningful that it instills in the spirit of each boy a life-long commitment to the well-being of his greater community. With this in mind, the school fosters citizenship and respect for others through its Mission Statement, addresses developing a strong community service program in its Long-Range Plan, and has created the following Mission Statement specifically for community service.
