Inly School is a private, co-educational, pre K - 8 Montessori school in Scituate, Massachusetts, 25 miles (40 km) south of Boston for students in toddler and preschool through 8th grade. It serves students from 20 towns on the South Shore of Boston and beyond, including Cohasset, Hingham, Norwell, Hull, Marshfield, Hanover, Pembroke and Plymouth. Inly blends Montessori curriculum and philosophy with educational best practices to teach core subjects, world languages, arts, athletics, and life skills in a highly experiential and individualized manner. Another aspect of the school that draws people in is the fact that the school is made up of former houses!
Inly’s 6-acre (24,000 m2) campus includes three buildings, two playing fields, three playgrounds, and the Meehan Family Artsbarn, which is used for performing arts, sports, and assemblies.
Inly is fully accredited by the Association of Independent Schools in New England (AISNE) and the American Montessori Society (AMS). The Inly curriculum aligns with the Massachusetts State Frameworks and follows a three-year cultural studies rotation that covers ancient civilizations, American civilization, and world civilizations, all viewed through the lens of the fundamental needs of humans.
Inly School was founded in 1973, as The Montessori Community School. In 2004 the school was renamed Inly School. The adverb “inly” means to do something with great depth of knowledge and understanding.
