The World is Our Classroom

Founded in 2001, Codman Academy is a charter public school located within the Codman Square Health Center in Dorchester, MA. The 2018-2019 school year marks the third year we are serving grades K1-12. Codman's 2019 benefit, "The World is our Classroom," will take place on Thursday, April 4th at the Boston Public Library from 6-8:30pm and will include food, drinks, student performances, and a live auction.

This year our theme is "The World is our Classroom." When we founded Codman in 2001, we envisioned an education for our students that took them beyond the four walls of their classroom. Our vision statement encapsulates our dedication to this innovative style of learning: "With the city and world as our classroom, we build a school community rich in rigorous academics and daily experiences of discovery." Our students use their academic skills in real life, apply critical thinking and analysis to everyday problems, and are creative and fearless in creating solutions to the world's problems.
