core New England summer memories.
Day School Program
WSA’s Day School Program provides gifted students in Grades 4-9 with an immersive learning environment rooted in real-world experiences.
Capitalizing on its proximity to Boston's many universities, museums, and performing arts venues, WSA shows students how academic learning translates into practical and meaningful human endeavor.
Hands-On, Authentic Learning
We transform students from passive learners to active, passionate directors of their own education.
Students apply their academic knowledge to real-world situations, deepening their understanding of the material while gaining practical knowledge and developing valuable life skills.
Advanced Placement Exam Preparation
Our Advanced Placement exam preparation focused curriculum keeps our students a step ahead of the curve.
WSA students in Grades 8 & 9 have access to classes designed to prepare them for the advanced placement exams across the sciences, composition, history, and more. They will dig in with hands-on projects to help reinforce the lesson beyond conceptual understanding and into lifelong practical application.
Community Outreach & Engagement
Washington Square Academy is deeply involved with surrounding communities. Through philanthropic activities, historical and artistic scavenger hunts, and Shark-Tank-style projects and presentations, WSA students regularly engage with local businesses and nonprofits, learning to advocate for themselves and others in pursuit of the common good.
New Location
Our new location at 181 Wells Ave in Newton, MA has added perks, like quiet testing pods, two full kitchens, a library lounge, and a YMCA membership for each student!
