A TRANSFORMATIONAL VISION
The Corlears 50th Anniversary Campaign

In 2018, Corlears celebrated its 50th anniversary. In honor of this significant milestone, Corlears School embarked on a 5-year, $4 million campaign that goes beyond our physical structure; this campaign is focused on our heart. Over the past five years, Corlears has been building a truly innovative and transformational vision that is growing a new model for what a private school made just for young children can be.

How to get connected and stay involved with Corlears School's alumni community.

Why Choose Seedlings at Corlears?

The stories of student experiences at Corlears and the depth of understanding that our alumni apply to their continued studies and subsequent careers is a reflection of their early years of preparation. In turn, the stories that our alumni bring back to the Corlears community gives current students confidence in the possibilities that lie before them.

"Corlears taught us the importance of empathy and thoughtfulness [...]. And so, as a young adult, I made a choice to face every single thing that scared me — to be my own window and stare straight at the hard things, to become my own bridge, and to walk toward life."
