CAMPUS UPDATES

List of 3 news stories.

  • School to Transition to Virtual Learning

    The start of Mod 5 has been delayed until Monday, March 30, 2020, with all classes conducted virtually through the end of the mod, April 30, 2020. From March 24–27, all teaching faculty and staff will participate in a four-day virtual teaching training. This training will be conducted online. Online classes will commence on March 30. On-campus classes will resume on May 5 at the very earliest. 

    A simplified schedule is as follows:

    March 24 – 27
    Virtual learning training for all teaching faculty and staff; no classes; all students to remain on break

    March 30
    Online learning begins.

    May 5
    Mod 6 Begins; on-campus classes resume

  • Important Boarding Update

    We are asking all boarding students who are currently off-campus to remain off campus for the entirety of Mod 5. For those students currently on campus for spring break, we will continue our program as promised through the end of the break, March 22. Between today and March 22, we recommend students who are currently on campus make arrangements to return home, or to another safe place, no later than March 24.  For those unable to do so, we will assist them in finding other options. Staying on campus in social isolation for an extended period of time is not healthy, and therefore, is not an option for any students. Please click here for more information. 

  • Campus Closed to Visitors

    Campus is currently closed to all visitors until further notice. Only authorized faculty, staff, and international students participating in our Spring Break boarding program are permitted on campus at this time. Prior to April 12, all other students and parents should not be on campus for any reason. The school is taking steps to alert local community members of this new protocol, and we will soon put in place precautions that will allow for more oversight over campus deliveries. Vendors will be permitted to visit campus for emergency repairs only. Any other meeting needing to take place will happen virtually.

Our Community


The Cambridge School of Weston is an inclusive community, with members from around the world. Each and every one of us must take care not to make assumptions about others based on perceived symptoms or identities (i.e. ethnicity and/or national origin). 

We are a community that looks out for one another, and every step each of us takes — whether it be in washing our hands, staying home when sick, or avoiding non-essential international travel — is of benefit not only to ourselves but to the entire community, especially those vulnerable to more serious medical complications.
