A school built for curious thinkers.
Through project-based learning rooted in real-world ideas, students at Projectory School learn how to lead their own learning journeys. We believe that even the youngest learners are full of vision — and we’re here to help them aim high.
Bold Beginnings
Projectory School is an elementary school in Richmond, Virginia built around project-based learning.
We serve children who ask big questions and want to understand how the world works.
Here, students don’t just memorize information. They investigate real problems, collaborate with peers, build original work, and present their thinking with confidence.
Through integrated reading, writing, math, science, and design, our students learn how to think critically, communicate clearly, and turn curiosity into meaningful action.
This is school designed for the world they’re growing into.
Momentum
Students are always moving forward, developing their love of learning.
Inquiry
Questions are just as important as answers.
Direction
Children learn how to plan, iterate, and lead their own learning journeys.
Creation
Learning is active: kids make things that matter.
Our classrooms are built around curiosity, creativity, and connection.
Instead of teaching math at 9:00 and science at 10:00, students explore real questions that naturally require multiple disciplines.
A project might involve:
~Reading and analyzing informational texts
~Writing persuasive or explanatory pieces
~Measuring, graphing, and calculating
~Designing prototypes or models
~Presenting findings to peers or families
Children don’t just learn subjects.
They learn how ideas fit together.
Because the real world doesn’t happen one subject at a time — and neither should school.
