    Nobles is a special place rich with tradition, oozing with school pride, and steadfast in strong community principles. I feel so fortunate to have spent my high school life in such a place where I was accepted, encouraged and challenged all in perfect harmony. The teachers are happy to be there too--they are also encouraged to challenge themselves and develop as educators and that is clear in the way they immerse themselves in their curriculum and their afternoon program duties. I love nobles more than words can share--could not recommend it more!

    As a repeat Junior at Noble and Greenough High School, it was very easy for me to feel comfortable at the school and feel that I fit in. I made friends quickly and in so was welcomed into the community with open arms. The education that Nobles provides for students doesn't only prepare them for college, but prepares them for the real world. The Athletics are very competitive and they always compete at a high level while doing so in a respectful manner. I can say I have thoroughly enjoyed every second at the school and wish I had come sooner.
    From the start, I loved Nobles. The community just pulled me in and made me feel very welcome. It’s a small school, so everyone is very tight, which I loved. It’s like one giant hug every day. The faculty are your advisors and they help you through absolutely everything. The love in that place is overwhelming. Sad to be leaving after 6 years, but I know that my community has prepared me for the outside world and for that I am forever grateful.
