School Profile

  • At Daniel Webster School, we prepare our students to compete successfully in our global society and to participate fully in our democracy as informed and thoughtful citizens. Our students will leave Daniel Webster School educated for independent thought and ethical action, as well as responsible, globally minded, culture-conscious students and citizens who possess a desire to lead and collaborate in the 21st century.

    What Makes Our School Unique? 

    Daniel Webster School prides itself on having a diverse student body and staff. In addition to English, our teachers speak languages including Arabic, Armenian, Chinese, French, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, and American and Spanish Sign Language. Our teaching staff is encouraged to relate all lessons to real life in order for the students to understand why they are completing a task or project, but more importantly, they are developing a better cultural awareness.
