Kent Place second-graders have been studying the people, animals, and geographies of our world’s continents — as they are today and from many years ago — as part of their science and social studies curricula, and this week they went on an exciting field trip that would bring their lessons to life. Equipped with their backpacks, notebooks, and adventurous spirits, the girls visited the Museum of Natural History, in New York City.
Community Service
At Kent Place, Service is a part of our culture.
The opportunity to give back encourages students to think early, deeply, and often about giving their time and talents to help others.
The Primary School works to instill a sense of social responsibility in our students.
Every student in the Middle School is involved in some type of community service PROJECT.
More than 90% of our Upper School students voluntarily participate in community service projects.
Throughout the year, our students make a difference for people through community service opportunities.
