Atrium's 2025 Compluvium Magazine is Here!

The spring 2025 edition of Atrium’s annual magazine, the Compluvium, is now available to read online. This year’s publication explores deep learning and teaching, and the impact an Atrium education has on our graduates, families, and community.

In an ancient Roman home, the "compluvium" was a central opening in the atrium roof, allowing air, light, and nourishing rainwater inside. We hope the Compluvium magazine is similarly a window to the outside and an entry point for the larger world to enter Atrium. Our 2025 issue includes a closer look at collaborative teaching in the Atrium classroom, interviews with recent alums, an overview of the School’s work with the SEED professional learning project, the annual Report of Giving, and much more.

The Compluvium is named for the feature of Roman architecture, an opening in the atrium roof that let in air, light, and collectible rainwater to a residence. Atrium’s magazine fulfills a similarly central purpose, providing yearly insight into the life of the school for alums and alum families, students and current families, and faculty and staff. Our 2024 issue includes an interview with veteran faculty members Merry Murray Meade, Susan Jacoby, and Jill Ferraresso; a timeline of the Middle School’s ten-year history; a preview of upcoming campus renovations; the annual Report of Giving; and much more.

COMPLUVIUM & Report of Giving 2021

Winter 2021

In ancient Rome, the compluvium was a central opening in the atrium roof that let in light and air. The Atrium School COMPLUVIUM publication is for alumni and alumni parents, students, parents, faculty and staff, grandparents, and all friends of Atrium School which provides a window into the life of the school.

The fiscal year 2019-2020 was full of difficult, unexpected challenges, yet our community came together to support our students and teachers. At Atrium, teachers continued to work toward a common goal: to make learning joyful so that children are engaged, and thus, learning more. The faculty remained nimble, flexible, adaptable, and resilient. All the while the board and school remained committed to our longer-term strategic plan. This issue of the COMPLUVIUM highlights the resilience of the community and the school’s vision for young people for the years ahead.   

We are extremely grateful to the entire Atrium community for your spirit of generosity and commitment to our mission. Continued strong support for the Atrium Fund and other initiatives ensures Excellence with Joy continues in all areas of our program – academics, extra curriculars, arts.
