Eliot-Pearson Children's School is the laboratory-demonstration program of the Eliot-Pearson Department of Child Study and Human Development at Tufts University.
Since 1922, children have always been at the center of everything we do.
We strive to provide children what they need to deepen their sense of self and self worth.
We welcome all families and partner with them to nurture their children and grow as a community.
Together, we make a vibrant community of learners through our core values of anti-bias education, mindfulness, and connection to nature!.
Our Extended Day and Enrichment Program is open to children
enrolled in our Preschool and K-1 programs and offered from Monday
to Friday from 12:30-4:00pm. It aims to provide children of
different ages plenty of opportunities to interact with one another
in a nurturing and stimulating environment that allows them ample
time to rest with activities, dive into projects led by peers or
teachers, stretch their imagination, and exercise their developing
skills. Children grow familiar with one another and with their
teachers, creating a close-knit group that feels like family. Every
child is valued. Every child is visible. Every child belongs. Our
Life Project program is held each day from 4:00 5:30pm, and offers
a cozy space where children can relax and build relationships while
exploring, learning, and developing a variety of life skills. It
promotes creativity, problem solving skills and the development of
a more intimate after school community. A variety of project-based
activities will be offered in small and large-group format,
spanning the areas of creative arts, problem solving, mindfulness,
technology, and beyond. Teachers and staff will participate in
ongoing observation and reflection to build a program that is
engaging and meaningful.
