Greenfield Center School

In 1981, Marlynn Clayton and small group of educators took what she calls "a giant leap of faith" and founded what would become the Center School. Forty-five years and countless students, teachers, and memories later, Marlyn's belief in the school's mission remains as strong as ever.

In honor of that legacy, Marlynn has challenged our community: if 40 people make a gift of any size by June 30, she will contribute a $10,000 gift to support the Center School's future.

At the Center School, our students don't learn how to fit it -- they learn what it feels like to belong. Our graduates own words say it best 💛 Swipe through to read their reflections on courage, kindness, self-discovery, and the power of being truly known.

As we close another school year, we are deeply grateful for this community that makes this work possible. If you'd like to sustain moments like these, consider supporting Center School before June 30th. Thanks to the generosity of one of our founders, Marlynn Clayton, all gifts this month will be matched dollar for dollar up to $10,000. To make a gift, visit our website and click "donate"
