Coordination with GA

Greenwich Academy and Brunswick School are committed to a coordinated Upper School program. While remaining two distinct institutions in philosophy and culture, GA and Brunswick are dedicated to common educational goals. The unique aspect of this coordination is that it creates an entity that is neither single-sex nor co-educational. Over three decades, the program has evolved into a teaching and learning community whose whole is better than the sum of its parts. The schools retain their own traditions, student governments, athletic programs, publications, Boards of Trustees and alumni/alumnae associations. All academic classes except mathematics and freshman English are co-educational. Most, if not all, students have classes on both campuses and occasionally faculty teach classes on the other school's campus. In certain cases courses are taught on only one campus, such as many of the sciences and advanced placement level courses. Performance opportunities are co-educational. The coordinated Upper School of approximately 600 students is big enough to provide a variety of activities and small enough to inspire a sense of belonging. Students enjoy co-educational extra-curricular and social activities. Students attend one another's games, read one another's newspapers and participate in joint field trips, clubs, musical groups and dramatic productions. This full range of coordinated classes and activities fosters camaraderie and mutual respect.
