Go Beyond the Traditional at Tabor

At Tabor, we go beyond the usual school experience. We bridge the gap between subjects—from hydroponics to history, biology to literature, sailing to ceramics—in a relevant, hands-on approach. Our students grasp the importance of diverse thought and how it can lead to innovative solutions in a continually evolving world.

Our waterfront school can be your second home; you'll not only expand your existing interests but also discover new ones. This ripple effect of curiosity and learning broadens your knowledge, while helping us all grow as a vibrant, well-rounded community.

Academics

Test yourself, apply your knowledge and develop your skills across the curriculum through the arts, mathematics, humanities, engineering, sciences, leadership experiences and more. Ambitious peers and faculty mentors will inspire and support you to dig deeper and go further than you thought possible.

Athletics

At Tabor, your child will excel because our team inspires student athletes to bring out the best in themselves and each other. Working in synergy to engage each individual, our coaches prepare athletes to improve, excel, and overcome challenges, be it high-level play in our ISL level competitions or by simply learning the basic skills of a new sport.

Real Talk

"Tabor cultivates kids who are great advocates for themselves. They grow into adults here.They learn to really speak up for themselves. They know what they want and go after it."

"If I see someone who needs more support or challenge, I can tailor what I’m teaching. We group by ability, but the real tailoring happens during office hours and 1:1."

"Tabor offers purpose, place, and comfort, and kids excel. Students find friends and mentors and they are encouraged to excel and perform. Belonging is everything."

“One of my favorite parts of being a faculty member is serving as an advisor. Each year, I get to meet new students and guide them through their Tabor journey. From discussing topics ranging from academics to social-emotional wellness, to planning out their sports and activities and just discussing our days, advisory is another way for us to connect with students and build bonds that last beyond just the four years that they spend here on campus. We become like a second family, and Tabor becomes their home away from home.”
