Exemplary Teachers
Field teachers are masters of their craft because they, too, are lifelong learners, committed to the
same processes they model in their students. Collaboration between colleagues builds
interdisciplinary knowledge and allows students to develop mastery of skills across the curriculum.
Extensive professional development gives our faculty the space to explore and understand current
research and best practice in education and adolescent development. As a result, our practice and
curriculum evolve while staying true to the core of what Field has always centered on: our students’ learning.
Field teachers know students learn best when allowed to explore and take risks in their growth
and learning while being supported as they build their skills toward independence. Creating this
environment requires us to believe in students deeply enough to hold high expectations and engage,
understand, and encourage their innate curiosity.
“To every teacher I’ve had along the way, thank you. You challenged me
when I needed it, supported me when I struggled, and celebrated me when
I succeeded. I’ll carry your lessons with me for the rest of my life.”
