R.D. Seymour School is a community of teachers and learners in the best and truest sense of the word! Good teaching, the school’s heart and soul, has long been a trademark. Each student is guided to develop in wonderful, unique ways. Any classroom, on any given day, is full of signs of teachers doing whatever it takes to make the learning process come alive.
We have an exceptional faculty who come to our school from a variety of experiences and backgrounds, yet, share two essential traits: love of children and passion for their work.
A 21st century education must provide abundant opportunities for technology use, cooperative learning, as well as critical thinking and problem solving. As educators at Seymour, we strive to create a learning environment that is rich in reading and writing opportunities, that teaches math at a conceptual level of understanding and values thinking processes over rote memorization. Our work has been recognized by the State Department of Education, which named Seymour School a School of Distinction for the school years 2016-2017, 2017-2018 and 2018-2019.
Student success guides the work of educators at Seymour School. We recognize the importance of students feeling connected to their school community and challenged in their learning. We value strong partnerships with families as we work together to cultivate student’s strengths and develop their social, emotional and academic abilities.
