A Commonwealth school is a learner-centered community where students are guided by mentors to explore, think critically, and take ownership of their education.

TJEd is an educational philosophy that emphasizes mentorship, classics-based learning, and developing leaders and self-directed learners rather than focusing solely on standardized tests.

The school serves students from early childhood through junior and scholar phases, depending on staffing and program availability.

Classes are based on student interest, developmental phase, and mentor availability, with a focus on deep, meaningful learning experiences.

Mentors are experienced guides who inspire learning, provide personalized guidance, and model lifelong learning.

Mentoring involves one-on-one or small group guidance, discussion of ideas, encouragement of curiosity, and personalized support in learning projects and classics study.

The executive committee oversees the Commonwealth, including leadership roles like Co-Chairman, Parent Representative, Treasurer, Secretary, and Junior Director.

Parents can serve as the Parent Representative, participate in school events, support mentors, and provide feedback to the executive committee.

The Treasurer manages budgets, oversees finances, and handles reimbursements.

The Secretary keeps records, manages correspondence, documents meetings, and oversees paperwork during orientation.
