Welcome to the Atrium!

The Atrium is a school for Pre-Kindergarten through 6th Grade located in Watertown, MA near the Cambridge line. Established 30 years ago, we believe that small classes, passionate faculty and a truly engaging, hands-on learning environment can draw out the best in each child. Our graduates emerge curious and capable, truly loving learning, and welcomed by both public and independent next-schools throughout the Boston area.

At the Atrium, we learned to try, to experiment, to take creative risks, and to recognize that the most unexpected combinations yield the most extraordinary results.
