Alum: I went to Suffield Academy for four years and I loved my experience! The community is amazing, and it’s easy to bond with teachers and students. There is plenty of things to do, and Suffield encourages students to show leadership and to care for the community. I will warmly remember my days at Suffield. I’m very grateful for the ways I’ve grown because of Suffield.... Read 242 reviews

Parent: Our son went to Williston last year for a repeat junior year. Though his public-private high school in Vermont offered ample opportunities, the Covid experience had impacted his academic sequence and experience. He'd also come to realize Vermont's competition levels and potential for exposure didn't align with his aspirations for next-level play. Williston came well-recommended by a college friend whose son had been their for a few years, especially for its community. Even more than meeting our expectations for the sports, we were thrilled to see the community and academic experience energize him to new levels. He thrived with connections to students from around New England, the country, globe, and local community! We are thrilled with his academic interest and relationships. He is extremely excited to return for senior year, and I encourage any family seeking a prep experience to look at the school!... Read 142 reviews

Parent: We chose WMA for its strong academic reputation noted for intelligent, caring faculty, a wonderful curriculum and diverse extracurricular activities but ended up getting far more! Our impression is that WMA somehow magically selects talented students from caring families creating an amazing student body full of smart but thoughtful human beings. This community quickly becomes a little family where the students support each other & feel cared for by faculty. WMA definitely has something for everyone. Not only was our son exposed to a vast array of Sports: Rugby, Water polo, Football and the Arts: Music/Theater but a myriad of other wonderful things. Most importantly though is the exceptional student body. It’s a nice balance between a “Mini United Nations feel” & Local Community Vibe blending perfectly students from this rural New England area and from across the globe. We were fortunate to host many students during breaks and now have lifelong friends throughout the world.... Read 105 reviews

Parent: While sending my daughter to study abroad, I worried about her life and academics very much. However, the teachers and dorm parents in this school proved that my choice is correct! With the combined efforts, the school as a whole improved our daughters physically, mentally, socially, and emotionally. This year, my kid is accepted by the Boston University, and I'm so proud of her! Without the generous help/recommendations from school teacher she couldn't get so many great offers, there is no doubt that SCA is one of the best boarding schools in the state.... Read 43 reviews

Works Here: As a contractor working with the school to set up a state of the art indoor air quality protocol to protect their staff and students, I have been amazed at their caring and unselfish approach to the upgrades on campus. Their investment in the health and wellbeing of everyone on campus is a model for all to follow and I am sure they approach all aspects of operating this fine institution in the same manner!

Senior: It's great for academics even if it's hard. The teachers are great because they are very invested in your education and genuinely care about you; they're willing to accommodate your needs and talk to you at any hour if you need something. The food is okay. They mainly serve pizza and chicken patties. My only complaint is that the students are very stuck up and cliquey so that its difficult to make friends. The sports are pretty good but they always get underfunded since hockey takes the main priority, which makes sense because it's the only D1 team. Still kinda sucks. The administration is bad. They don't communicate with other parts of the school and are very strict so their lack of management rubs off on your daily activities. Speaking of daily activities, it's pretty fun at Pope because they always have something going on and try to give you an easy day/day-off every couple of weeks with either a retreat or remote day due to a teacher's meeting. I recommend.... Read 171 reviews

Parent: We were nervous about changing to PVCA, but everything we were nervous about has been addressed and we couldn’t be more happy with the school. We have 3 kids attending, the teachers have been amazingly responsive and love our kids just as much as we do! The academics are right on and as an educator myself, I am so happy with the learning taking place. My kids are safe, comfortable, happy and learning and growing in the Lord. Administration has been quick to respond and are forward thinking while upholding moral and ethical Christ centered values. My kids get more electives than they would in public schools in a culturally and linguistically diverse community! It’s such a warm welcoming community! The teachers have even shared their cell phone numbers and are happy to communicate regarding our children’s needs. I can’t say enough!... Read 67 reviews

Senior: Some of the best memories of my entire life were made at Saint Mary’s. I’m graduating this year and I couldn’t be more saddened by the fact that I’m leaving. But, on the other hand, I’m also excited for the future, knowing that the gifts that have been given to me by the teachers and staff at Saint Mary’s will allow me to achieve success in my adult life. The teachers, administrators, and other staff members are all excellent, as are the students. Saint Mary’s is truly a family and they are always welcoming new members!... Read 44 reviews

Parent: I like that the school is diverse and very clean they did excellent during covid. Uniforms where I slight bit mor expensive than expected but they do last depend on how your child grows. My child does have a little issue with school lunch although it's not bad, culturally our food is just different, so I suggest giving your kid lunch from home, if possible, maybe twice a week to get them comfortable. all the teachers even the ones that are not interactive with my child do to grade differences, still know her and that stood out.

Sophomore: At St. Stanislaus School, I received a phenomenal primary education which prepared me for my further education. Throughout the years I attended this school, I had an extremely close bond with my classmates and teachers. I excelled in high school and other social events as a result of the education provided by this school. It really is a very special place. Even as an alumni, I still feel welcome and comfortable when I occasionally visit.... Read 4 reviews
