Founded in 1886, The Cambridge School of Weston offers challenging college preparation under the Module Plan, a structure that enables students to learn more actively and to concentrate in-depth on three or four courses at a time. Over 300 courses combine rigorous academics and interdisciplinary studies with strong visual and performing arts, interscholastic and recreational sports, and off-campus experiences. CSW graduates are respected for independence of thought, creativity, and community commitment. The school's 65-acre suburban campus is 25 minutes by automobile or train from Boston or Cambridge.
