Welcome to Ross Lower School in Bridgehampton, where innovation and curiosity are at the heart of our learning community for children from Nursery through Grade 5.
Our students' days are rich with diverse and engaging activities, from learning Mandarin and building Solar System models to solving math puzzles and conducting science experiments. Every day here is an adventure, fostering deep and meaningful learning in a supportive environment.
In our bucolic setting in Bridgehampton, NY, we emphasize the importance of outdoor activities, not just for physical health but for mental well-being. This connection with nature is central to our educational philosophy, nurturing our students in a foundational and enriching environment.
Our approach to education is tailored to each student's needs, promoting creativity, innovation, and intellectual curiosity. We focus on problem-solving and teamwork, supporting each child to meet and exceed grade-level expectations.
Educating the whole child for the whole world is our mission, and we integrate life skills into our curriculum. Our students learn collaboration, conflict resolution, respect for diverse perspectives, and active contribution to their community.
At Ross School, we instill our Core Values in every student, principles that guide their efforts to make the world a better place. These values are reflected in every aspect of our school life, from our curriculum to the design of our facilities.
We are also proud of our partnership with Amber Waves Farm in East Hampton, which enriches our curriculum by connecting students to local agriculture and sustainable practices. This partnership is a testament to our commitment to teaching our students about the history, people, and rich natural environment of the East End of Long Island. Through this collaboration, our students gain hands-on experience and learn the value of community and environmental stewardship.
We eagerly await your joining our community and are excited to share this enriching educational journey with you.
