Welcome to Commonwealth-Parkville School, a leading co-ed college preparatory school serving outstanding students in the metro area for over 70 years. I am proud to be part of a community where students come first, everyone belongs, and we are committed to continual improvement and growth in all we do. Our Comets graduate fully prepared for their next steps, attending some of the most prestigious colleges and universities around the world. However, equally important to the destination, we ensure our students also experience joy in the journey.
At CPS, we believe every child holds a unique promise and brings something to the world that no one else can. We recognize that to adequately prepare students for an ever-changing world, we must provide them with a solid foundation in our English-based, college-preparatory curriculum, enhanced by our fine and performing arts, technology, and athletic programs. Additionally, we have a responsibility to instill in our students the habits of heart and mind that last a lifetime. We intentionally help them to be courageous questioners, creative thinkers, and empathetic citizens, fully equipped and eager to re-shape the world for the better.
