The alumni community is amazing, I keep in touch with the administrators of Fieldstone, and they always invite me back to help out with events! It’s an amazing opportunity to see the next generation of students who come out of Fieldstone, and the work that they’ve also put in throughout their years. Since graduating, I’ve still continued to keep up with students at the school. I really believe that I’ve truly made life long friendships! The parents at Fieldstone are also great, and they even have their own faculty in the JK-8 section of the school! I found that through my elementary years at Fieldstone the parents contributed a lot to the events and even creating a close-knit circle of friends for their children.
From my experience, parents, especially in the day school, formed an integral part of the community. I even remember the parents' association being very involved in school life, which goes to show their great care to involve parents. In terms of being an alumnus, I definitely still feel like I am a part of the school community, being invited for alumni events and asked to contribute to the school environment. I am still in contact with people at the school, as that feeling of being welcomed back at the school at any time and being asked to contribute is something that is definitely refreshing and makes me as an alumni always feel like a part of the school community.
What stands out to me is how willing Fieldstone is about maintaining bonds within and outside of the community. I have been invited to participate in many activities, as an alumni, such as judging a business competition. I have also been invited to a lunch at Fieldstone. Since my time at Fieldstone, I keep in contact with a couple of my friends, many of which are currently scattered around the globe. This has proven very beneficial because I now have friends around the world. Fieldstone has really encouraged keeping ties with their alumni and have them feel included with the school. That is so wonderful because I get to see many of the teachers and administrators from my time there and that is always such a wonderful experience.

The academic environment is supportive and engaging.
Testimonials from students and alumni highlight that Fieldstone School's supportive atmosphere, dedicated staff, and comprehensive extracurricular offerings provide a well-rounded and engaging educational experience.
I loved my time at Fieldstone! I remember waking up every day and being excited to go to school. Fieldstone creates a very loving and supportive environment for their students! Especially because the size of the student body is smaller, and it allowed the administration and staff to get to know each and every student! This to me was amazing, and even now I still drop by every once and a while to say hello to everyone! At Fieldstone, I really felt that the teachers really cared about their students, and always gave room for students to request extensions on their work to ensure low stress levels! This allowed me to gain a sense of responsibility and even time management! I personally really enjoyed the time I spent at Fieldstone!
I loved going to school at Fieldstone, and I still visit to this day. As highlighted before, the staff definitely created an environment that promoted healthy learning and a positive atmosphere. I loved conversing with the teachers and other students and was definitely always looking forward to attending class. It was a more relaxed environment that I most definitely enjoyed, and something that encouraged me to work harder. I certainly miss the atmosphere of being able to joke around and converse with the teachers and students while also maintaining a respect-first relationship with everyone around me. I was definitely also able to maintain a great academic standing throughout due to my feeling of stability within the school.
