About us
Fay School was founded in 1866 and was the first junior boarding school in the United States. Our 63-acre campus is located in Southborough, MA, just 25 miles from Boston. Our community includes 475 students in kindergarten through grade nine. Of those, 150 students are boarders who come from across the United States and more than 25 countries. We are proud of our authentically diverse and multicultural community. Fay is recognized around the world for its superior educational program, and our graduates are accepted to top secondary schools, including Phillips Exeter Academy, Phillips Academy Andover, Deerfield Academy, and Groton School. In addition to the core courses of mathematics, science, English, and history, students take art, music, and world languages. Students also focus on the design thinking process with courses in our 3,000 square-foot Innovation Lab. Community members embrace our five core values - Academic Excellence, Honorable Conduct, Dedicated Service, Earnest Effort, and Wellness of Mind, Body, and Spirit - and our school motto, Poteris Modo Velis (“You can if you will”) highlights our community's emphasis on determination, effort, and resilience. While the School has grown and evolved since its founding in 1866, our central purpose has remained constant: we provide our students with the foundation for a meaningful life. Fay's program empowers students to discover their talents, develop their intellectual abilities, establish essential academic skills and knowledge, and define their moral character - all essential to living a life of meaning and making a positive difference in the world.

Just as a balanced diet helps a child grow strong and healthy, a well-rounded "reading diet" fosters a love for reading and enhances literacy skills in young readers. This month, English Department Chair Mary Munkenbeck has been encouraging her fourth-grade students to explore a variety of literary genres through a creative activity she calls "book tastings."

Sixth grade scientists reviewed the steps of the scientific method by experimenting with Möbius strips this month. A Möbius strip is a unique surface with only one side and one edge. Sixth graders made their own by taking long strips of adding machine tape, twisting one end 180 degrees, and then connecting the ends. Without explaining the unique properties of what they had created, Science Teacher Adel Collins asked students to hypothesize how many sides their strip of paper had. As students worked, she shared examples of well-formulated hypotheses with the class. Then, she asked students to test their theories by drawing a line down the center of the strip. Students were shocked to discover that their line continues infinitely because the strip is a 2-dimensional surface in 3-dimensional space! https://lnkd.in/eqMhXYas
