  • At The Washington Market School, we place tremendous value on learning– for our children and for our adults. Last week, a group of faculty and members of our leadership team, including Head of School Carrie Kries, gathered to co-create a new section of our Peer to Peer Guide. We created the original version of this resource last summer in a similar, co-creative manner, and it served throughout the school year as a tool to ensure that every member of our faculty and staff had a shared understanding of our truly unique school.

    Thank you Finalsite and Xavier High School for hosting WMS yesterday! Members of our team shared how Finalsite has not only helped us redesign our website, but has also given us to chance to connect with our community in deeper and more meaningful ways.

  • The Washington Market School is lucky to have a leader like Carrie Kries. Last week, Carrie attended the Mental Health of Children and Young People Conference at the United Nations. She spoke in front of other leaders from around the world as they engaged in conversation and tried to answer the question "how can we do better?" #mentalhealthofchildren #leadership #WMS

    Head of School at The Washington Market School

    I had an incredible experience this week! I addressed the Permanent Missions of Canada, Indonesia, Kuwait, Mexico, Qatar, and Romania, alongside the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) at the United Nations. Everyone present was focused on the role we all play in addressing the mental health of children and young people- as individuals and as organizations nationally and globally. Truly inspiring to be amongst leaders who dedicate themselves and their resources to the wellbeing of our children around the world. #mentalhealthofchildren #teachersmatter #leadingwithheart #leadingwithdignity The Washington Market School

  • The culture of adult learning at The Washington Market School is truly special. Our teachers not only have a passion for teaching young learners but for collaborating and teaching one another. Hudson Street Site Director, Marielle Lopez, so beautifully demonstrated this during a site meeting where we discussed how to use Montessori materials to teach language lessons. After Marielle demonstrated the use of Sandpaper Letters and the Moveable Alphabet, teachers excitedly offered to shared the skillful ways in which they use these time-tested materials with their children. We collectively learned new, creative games such as ‘knock knock’ and hide and seek with the Sandpaper Letters.
