Dedicated to personal growth and lifelong learning

Clark School is an independent, co-educational day school serving Preschool through Grade 12 on our Rowley, MA campus. Founded in 1978 and accredited by the Massachusetts Department of Education, Clark is known for welcoming a wide range of learners—from those who benefit from academic or social support to academically advanced and gifted students. 

Our individualized approach blends project-based learning, strong executive-functioning development, and meaningful teacher connections. With technology integrated throughout the curriculum, students are empowered to explore, create, and experiment with the latest tools and modalities.

At Clark, every student has the chance to shine—building on their strengths while gaining confidence and independence in areas that challenge them. And with year-round rolling admissions, families don’t have to wait to find a school that truly fits who their child is as a learner and as a person.

Clark School is a Strong Fit For Students Who:

  • demonstrate high intellectual, creative or leadership abilities

  • have learning differences

  • or respond well to an innovative, supportive environment. 

We strive to enlighten and strengthen each student by providing valuable tools to support them as they develop

  • problem-solving skills

  • deductive reasoning

  • good study habits

  • executive functioning skills

  • time management

  • self-advocacy

  • social pragmatics

Our strong academic curriculum emphasizes each student's strengths. Small classes allow for personal attention to each child's needs and students are encouraged to excel at their own pace in each subject area. Students also have many opportunities to develop an awareness and appreciation of the arts and technology and to find satisfaction in self-expression and creative endeavors.
