It’s Back-to-School Days and We are Ready to Welcome You All Next Week!
What is Heronfield?
Redefining Middle School
Heronfield Academy is a private, independent day school serving grades 6 through 8. Informed by the Episcopal tradition, Heronfield combines an academically rigorous curriculum while simultaneously nurturing the core values of Honesty, Respect, Diligence, Celebration, and Caring. Purposely designed to be a small school, Heronfield students know that they are seen, heard, known and valued at Heronfield.
Why Heronfield Academy?
There is no greater period in the lives of young people than the middle school years.
At Heronfield, we think deeply about the arc of the middle school years, a period of physical, social, and emotional development only matched by the first three years of a child’s life. By dedicating our energies, passions, and resources to students in grades 6, 7, and 8, we are able to take advantage of the ways that young people’s minds are opening and how they are learning to engage with others and with the world around them.
Each experience at Heronfield – from new student orientation before the year begins to eighth grade graduation in June – is considered with the student in mind, and we are inspired by the difference that Heronfield makes in the lives of students and their families.

Heronfield Teacher
“We’re very clear about who we are and what we’re about. This is a school where teachers don’t just assign and correct. We get to teach.”
