  • Cambridge Founding Lead Pre-K Teacher Start Date : August 2026 About The Croft School The Croft School organization is a young, high-quality, independent school organization.  We have opened and now operate three growing and acclaimed independent schools in Providence, RI, Jamaica Plain, MA, and the South End neighborhood of Boston, respectively.

We are thrilled by the opportunity to open a fourth school, The Croft School :

  • Cambridge, in September 2026.  During the 2026-27 school year, we will enroll students in Preschool and Pre-Kindergarten.  During the 2027-28 year, we will expand to include Kindergarten.
  • Over time, we will grow (one grade level per year) into a Preschool-Grade 8 school.
  • The Croft School is considered by many families and teachers to represent an exciting new type of school that is ideal for those concerned about the area’s existing public school (inconsistent quality; large class sizes; driven by standardized test outcomes) and private school (elitism; non-affordability; limited diversity; lack of innovation) options.
  • The Croft School :

  • Cambridge will be built around the ethos of rigor, spark, heart, joy, and belonging.
