To customize this school profile (and others), answer a few questions about your child’s needs.
Go to child profileFieldstone is founded on a strong and positive belief in children. Children, very naturally, exhibit a powerful desire to be successful both socially and academically. It is our responsibility, as a school, to help guide, encourage, and support them to make that desire a reality. We achieve this goal by teaching an enriched curriculum in the context of a caring and supportive environment. At Fieldstone, we see not the child we meet but rather who that child will become.
What learning looks like now: - To reduce traffic at our entrances, parents will drop off and pick up their children at these designated doors. Parents will not enter the school with their children at drop-off and pick-up times. - Masks and face shields are mandatory on campus. Fieldstone will provide the first face shield to all students and staff. - Sanitizing stations have been installed in front of each classroom and additional sanitizing stations have been installed in the cafeteria. - Students will be asked to bring their own hand sanitizer to use before entering each class. - Soapy water will be provided in the classrooms as well for visibly soiled hands. - Desks and chairs will be wiped down before the end of each period. - All Textbooks and resources will stay at the school or digital resources will be used. - Desks will be distanced appropriately. - Physical distancing will be enforced throughout the campus (hallways, cafeteria, and classrooms). - All shared spaces (washrooms, cafeteria etc.) will have specific regulations (reduced capacities and increased cleaning frequency) in place to minimize student contact and prevent the spread of germs. - School doors will be opened at 8:10 for controlled entry into the building. If you have extenuating circumstances that require an earlier arrival, please notify [email protected] in advance and we will do our best to accommodate your request.

The aim of Fieldstone is to provide an inclusive, supportive, 360-degree student experience, and both curricular and extra-curricular programs have been created with that goal in mind. Class sizes are kept small, and the relationships between instructors, administrators, and students is close. The feel is nurturing, yet the academic gaze is wide. The intention is to educate students to positions of informed leadership, both locally and globally. A rich language program is a hint of that, including a one-on-one reciprocal English-Chinese mentorship, pairing native speakers of both languages. The ideal student is one with sights firmly set on university.

Alumni Highlights
Dear Prospective Parent,
There is so much more that young people need in order to flourish at school. Fieldstone provides the co-curricular and leadership opportunities necessary for our students to hone their skills and build their confidence outside the classroom. In a small and nurturing environment, all students have the opportunity to experience what it means to be an active participant in a dynamic community. Whether by playing on one of our many athletic teams, running for student government or showing leadership in community service, Fieldstone students gain a unique sense of belonging and the satisfaction that they are helping to build traditions that will last for generations to come.
I look forward each year to working with Fieldstone's students, parents, teachers and administrators in achieving the goal of Fieldstone: producing competent and confident young children who will turn the knowledge and skills that they learn at this school into success in their chosen paths in the future.
