Crossroads Academy is an independent day school, committed to academic and moral excellence. We strive to provide today's students with the tools they will need to think clearly, judge responsibly, and act honorably in tomorrow's world. To that end, we commit ourselves to the following goals and objectives:

• To teach the core body of knowledge that students must master in order to function as thoughtful citizens of the United States and members of the world community. We subscribe to the concept of "Core Knowledge" as defined by the Core Knowledge Foundation and explained in the work of E. D. Hirsch, Jr. We pledge ourselves to its promotion in the areas of language arts, geography, world civilization, American civilization, fine arts, science and technology, mathematics and religion.
• To cultivate the learning skills necessary for success in scholarship and daily life; critical thinking, problem-solving, decision-making, communication, research, and scholarship.
• To promote the moral development of our students in the Jewish and Christian traditions by recognizing the existence of absolutes and affirming man's obligations before God and neighbor; upholding standards of human interaction based on the virtues of courage, prudence, temperance, justice, faith, hope, and charity; encouraging respect for and knowledge about the religious traditions among us; recognizing Biblical literacy, comparative religions, moral reasoning, and ethics as critical educational concerns; fostering the life of the spirit by encouraging children in prayerful reflection.
• To nurture the personal qualities necessary for fruitful thought and action; self-worth and self-discipline; prudence and good judgement; cooperation and collaboration; creativity and initiative.
• To call students to high standards of learning and behavior by emphasizing perseverance, diligence, and concentration; promoting and furthering strong attention span; expecting students to reach high and ask the most of themselves; fostering and expecting empathy, solidarity, and thoughtfulness.
• To promote "democratic literacy" in our students, that is, to promote an understanding of and attachment to democratic principles; to cultivate in students an awareness of their heritage as a free people; and to promote familiarity with the major theorists and activists for democracy from Aristotle to Madison; from Thomas Jefferson to Elizabeth Cady Stanton to Martin Luther King Jr. To provide a classroom and school environment that encourages academic and moral excellence and conveys the worth and dignity of each child, the excitement and joy of learning, the beauty and wonder of life - a life that moves beyond self, the order that is essential to learning and living.

The main goal is to provide excellent academic preparation for college, but also offered is strong programs in the arts, sports and environmental science.

What makes Kimball Union Academy different than other schools? - First, the faculty: academic classes are taught by people who will make you excited about learning and will want to know who you are, too. - Then, the students: students are friendly people who love to do things. They are energetic and enthusiastic and many have chosen us because this is a place where you can do all the things you have always wanted to try. You can be on a championship-winning team at the same time as taking part in the annual musical; you can take a pottery class, learning how to throw a pot in our beautiful arts center, and also hone your slalom racing skills with the alpine team each afternoon at nearby Whaleback ski area.

- And there is location. We are in central New Hampshire where spring and fall are warm and beautiful, but winters bring plenty of snow for alpine and nordic skiing
