UNFORTUNATELY,THIS SCHOOL IS CLOSED AS OF 2007. The philosophy of the Tuller School is that development from childhood to responsible adulthood is best accomplished in an atmosphere that combines a firm grounding in high-quality academics that also enables each child to develop at his or her own pace.
Such an atmosphere will permit children to grow into well-balanced, well-adjusted adults who are emotionally self-respecting, economically self-sufficient, and able to contribute to a free society.
The School is a nonprofit institution dedicated to high academic standards while keeping tuition affordable.
The Tuller School was founded in Providence, Rhode Island, in
1927 by Dr. Abbie Loveland Tuller, a well-known educator who had
received her doctorate at Harvard and had taught at Smith and
Wilson Colleges and served as Dean of Women at Denison College.
Dr. Tuller left her collegiate work in order to write a course
of study that she felt would give all students the opportunity to
reach their individual potentials. This course of study is still
used today at the two Tuller Schools, now located in Fairfield,
Connecticut and Tucson, Arizona.
The Tuller Method is a correlated pattern system devised to give
all students the opportunity to achieve their highest potential.
Students may progress at their individual rate of speed in small,
congenial groups of companions. The Tuller Method employs
textbooks, work outlines, and syllabi published by the Tuller
School Workshop. In addition, modern textbooks are integrated into
the courses of study. Small classes and individualized teaching are
emphasized.
After the first three years of elementary work, the Tuller
Correlated Pattern Plan combines group instruction with individual
adjustment and progress and is so arranged that the work for each
group in all subjects is planned around a single unit project. When
appropriate, diagnostic and remedial work is also given.
Before and after school programs are also provided.
