Epiphany is an independent, tuition-free, middle school for children of economically disadvantaged families from Boston neighborhoods.
Epiphany's small classes, individualized curricula, and extended school days provide rigorous academic, moral and social instruction.
In close partnership with families, we are an innovative learning community that affords structured support to help students thrive.
Together, we are a school that never gives up on a child.
Epiphany challenges students to discover and develop the fullness of their individual gifts.
We seek to prepare graduates who will contribute intelligently, morally, and actively to the society they will inherit.
