- The_Peck_School abstract "The Peck School is an independent, co-educational day school with grades kindergarten through eighth grade. Peck School is located in Morristown, in Morris County, New Jersey. There are approximately 330 students. The Peck curriculum includes communication arts, drama, English, library studies, math, music, physical education, reading, science, history, social studies, technology, themes or family life, visual arts, woodworking, and world languages. Furthermore, Peck's InDeCoRe (Individual Development and Community Responsibility) Program teaches character development and life skills and traits. There are six core "InDeCoRe values" that the school emphasizes: Respect, Loyalty, Perseverance, Empathy, Responsibility, and Honesty.The Peck School has two divisions, the Upper School (grades 5-8) and the Lower School (grades K-4). The Peck mission statement reads, "We believe that, in life, knowledge must be guided by values. Through a commitment to character formation and a rigorous and inspirational academic program, The Peck School strives to build in each student the capacity for disciplined learning and consideration of others. With dedicated faculty and families, we prepare our students to succeed in secondary school and to lead healthy, productive, and principled lives." Peck strives to educate and strengthen the whole person. So not only does Peck have a rigorous and challenging intellectual program, it has a strong balance. Activities are held most Friday afternoons for Upper School students. Possible choices include The Linden (yearbook), ImPeckable News (student newspaper), the Student Council, Youth Council, Green Team, "Art Spirit" (literary magazine), the P.I.C club (Peck InDeCore Club), and more. There is also another period called Peck Block, held a couple of times in a rotation, with opportunities ranging from Chorus to Coding. In addition, further extracurricular activities include Kindergarten Helpers, the Steel Pan Band, Pro Musica (a singing group for lower schoolers and upper schoolers), Peckapella (a 7-8 acapella group), and the After School Enrichment Program, known as PEP. One of the significant elements of a Peck education is an emphasis on community service activities. From Kindergarten to 8th grade, students are made aware of the world around them and taught to act. In the 8th Grade, students select a "Service Learning Project" for their whole grade to adopt.Like many independent schools, the Peck athletic program is required. It emphasizes sportsmanship, teamwork, and responsibility. Students compete inter-scholastically in grades 5-8 in a number of fall, winter, and spring sports. Peck has built up a reputation of having one of the most competitive private-school sports programs in the area. Peck's mascot is The Pride, which serves as a symbol of Peck's school-wide sense of pride. The Peck School is a member of the New Jersey Association of Independent Schools and the Commission on Elementary Schools of the Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools.Peck is also known for its many traditions. It has an annual field day called Downy-Redhead Day, which has relay races and an all-school tug-of-war. Much school competition is centered on those two teams. Peck has a talent show, where students can showcase their talents to the school body. There is a Christmas Sing. There is also a Spring Sing. Lower schoolers participate in a science fair, which is known as the Science Expo, and they submit their work to the Lower School literary Arts magazine (Spectrum). Commencement is held every year for graduating 8th graders, as students move on to secondary school. Graduates of the Peck School populate a wide range of competitive, high-caliber, and elite schools. College placement tends to be just as excellent.".
