| |  | BRINGING OUT THE BEST IN BOYS (K-9)
(Pre-Kindergarten Program, Fall 2012)
What does "the best" mean? The unabridged edition of Webster's Dictionary offers no less than twelve meanings for the word "best." At Fessenden, we offer even more. We define it as the unique qualities inherent in each boy. To us, "the best" means discovering the diverse strengths and developing the full potential in each boy.
Our mission is to teach, nurture and celebrate growing boys while striving to develop balance in mind, heart and body. The foundation of our philosophy is providing a character education that embraces the values of honesty, compassion and respect in an inclusive community. In our view, an all-boys school is the ideal setting in which boys can mature academically, socially, artistically and physically. |

 | Parents “Fireside Chat” with Trustees and Headmaster
11/11/2011
At Fessenden’s fifth trustee forum for parents, Board President Tom Roberts P ’14, ’17 opened by reading the School’s mission, noting that the Board of Trustees does so at its meetings to reinforce the context in which Board discussion and decisions are made. “At the end of the day, our goal is to have each boy reach his potential.” After outlining the various committees of the Board, he turned the program over to Headmaster Dave Stettler who highlighted the National Association of Independent School’s (NAIS) perspective on independent schools’ need for a “strategic vision” for sustainability.
