Educating Children Since 1902
Park Tudor is an independent school in Indianapolis, Indiana for children age 3 through grade 12. We provide an individualized learning environment where children are encouraged to explore opportunities, exceed expectations and expand possibilities.
For more than 120 years, our ongoing goal has been to prepare students to be successful and compassionate citizens of the world.
| 1902 | Miss Fredonia Allen, and a community leader, The Reverend James Cumming Smith, founded Tudor Hall School for Girls at 16th and Meridian Streets in Indianapolis. |
| 1914 | Park School began in 1914 as The Brooks School for boys. When that school developed financial problems in 1920, seven Indianapolis businessmen purchased it and operated it as Boys Preparatory School, and in 1929 the name of the school was changed to Park School. |
| 1970s | When Tudor Hall merged with Park School in 1970 to become Park Tudor School, the Upper School was built and a small gymnasium was added to the larger gym. In 1976, the Fine Arts Building and Frederic M. Ayres Auditorium opened. |
| 1980s | In 1988, the Middle School was moved from the Upper School building into a facility of its own. The Ruth Lilly Science Center was completed in 1989, giving the school a state-of-the-art science facility. |
| 1990s | The year 1992 marked the opening of the expanded gymnasium complex. The Lower School was renovated in 1997 and joined to the new Hilbert Early Education Center, which houses junior and senior kindergarten. |
| 2000s | In 2000, a new addition joining the Upper School to the Fine Arts Building and a total renovation of these two buildings, as well as a number of other campus improvements, were completed. |
| 2021 | The Irsay Family Sports Center for Health and Wellness opened, offering Park Tudor students a state-of-the-art facility focused on wellness, physical education, and athletics. The Wellness Center has also become a place for the PT community to gather and connect with each other. |
Park Tudor’s Hilbert Early Education Center is home to our Junior Kindergarten (ages 3-5) and Senior Kindergarten (ages 5-6), a 3-year curriculum where young learners can play, create, learn and grow.
