The The Browning School

For the single-sex schools, Interschool is our first call when we want to broaden our base for projects, plays, collaborative experiences. For all of our schools, Interschool’s emphasis on intellectual rigor and serious human interaction on many levels... students, teachers, The Collegiate School parents, administrators... makes it essential to our individual identities.
