We have two children who graduated from Middlesex in 2016 and 2018, respectively, and one child who is currently a senior. All three children were different students and Middlesex was a fabulous school for all three. I can't say enough great things about their entire experience. The teachers are incredibly caring and invested in their students (as people and scholars) and encourage the students to try their best and challenge themselves. The academics are rigorous, but fair, and the teachers encourage critical thinking and healthy debate in the classroom. The advising system is fantastic, as is the Soph. yr Writing Workshop. Most of the sports teams are coached by faculty so they get to know your child outside of the classroom. My kids report that it is a very welcoming community and there are numerous environments where you can get to know students from all grades. A MX student can thrive in the classroom, on the sports field and in the arts and are encouraged to do so.
My daughter (Sophomore) has been very happy with her decision to go to Middlesex (MX). She was torn between MX and another school that she also liked. She chose MX, and one of the reason is their rigorous writing program. In my opinion all academically rigorous schools are great and what makes difference is its people and the community (i.e. students, parents, teachers and administrative stuff). MX is academically challenging and high expectations and standards are expected of students but it's not a cut throat environment. We live far from MX (San Francisco, CA) but always felt I have easy access to school admin and teachers when necessary. I would like to encourage students and parents overseas to look at MX. I feel school size is perfect to get to know not only everyone in your grade but also other grades; not too small and not too big.
Attending Middlesex was single handedly the best decision I have ever made. The people are absolutely amazing, the academics are top tier, the athletics are extremely competitive, and the arts programs are phenomenal. I wish every student in the world had the opportunity to attend a place like Middlesex because it truly is such an amazing institution that has shaped me into the person that I am today. I will eternally be thankful for the experiences I had at Middlesex, whether it be learning how to write a top notch analytical essay or learning the ins and outs of dorm life. While there is a hole in my heart after graduating this past month, I feel beyond prepared to be successful in collegiate academics and athletics. If you are looking for a small independent school, I cannot encourage you enough to apply to/attend Middlesex because I can guarantee you it will change your life for the better!
