Academics

Sanderson students participate in a wide range of educational programs. The school's curricula are closely aligned with the Standards of the Massachusetts Curriculum Frameworks. Students participate in art, music, and physical education lessons every week. 

We Know Every Student

Because of our favorable student-teacher ratio, Sanderson teachers get to know every student's strengths and challenges. Using regular assessments and multi-tiered intervention, our staff provides differentiated instruction tailored to the needs of  individual students.

Responsive Classroom

At Sanderson, we use the Responsive Classroom approach to teaching, emphasizing academic, social, and emotional growth within a strong, supportive educational community. Our goal is to engage students with challenging, interactive learning in a calm, orderly environment that encourages participation and collaboration.

Special Education

We meet the needs of all children with services provided by our reading specialist, a Title 1 math program, and a fully staffed special education resource room.
