Senior: My best experience with Chapman High School is the family like atmosphere among the teachers and students. Going to school every day feel like visiting a family member. The classes are small, which creates an effective learning environment, and the all the students feel heard. The one aspect I would change about Chapman High School is diversity. The small school is located in a rural area in which I feel teachers and student are not exposed to more complex social challenges and issues that would develop a more well-rounded and knowledge person that could contribute to resolving bigger issues outside of their current communities....

Senior: Abilene High School has amazing teacher to student connections. Students know that all the teachers want them to succeed and go far after they graduate. One thing the the high school could work on is getting rid of the pathway requirement. The pathway requirement makes it impossible for student to change their high school career route. If they start a pathway freshman year and they end up not liking it they feel obligated to finish that pathway even though it isn’t the route they want to take anymore. Other then that, AHS has an amazing atmosphere and the student have great school spirit even when we lose a football game 70 to nothing.... Read 100 reviews

They will teach you everything you need to know and what to do they will make sure you get it.

Senior: Solomon High School has had a major impact on my life. I have made so many memories and the teachers there are so involved and supportive. I've been playing sports my whole life and I miss quite a bit of school. The teachers are flexible and understanding and allow me to make it up when I can. If I could change one thing about Solomon High School I would change the color of our middle school walls. We are the Solomon Gorillas. Red and white, I'm not sure why our walls are green....

Senior: Abilene Baptist Academy is a small, private school where everyone knows everyone. You can be involved in almost everything they have to offer- at the same time, sometimes. The school is consistent for the most part. We have fun in a clean, Christian environment and the school is academically supportive. What I wish would happen in the school is that I wish it would grow and gain some more diversity. I want the school to be able to have more activities going on and more, younger teaches to come through- but in order to have that, there has to be more students.... Read 5 reviews

Parent: Our daughter is a first year junior at SMS and I can't thank the school enough for the extraordinary experience she has had! SMS knows girls and provides support for all aspects of our daughter's life--academically, socially, spiritually. She has flourished here and I think it is because she feels understood and heard by her teachers and classmates. It really has made a difference in her academic performance and overall well being. The river setting of SMS provides opportunities for water activities, STEM studies, and daily reflection. The sports and arts programs are strong and inclusive. Our daughter is challenged academically and we have seen marked improvement in her writing, analytical, and verbal communications skills. We have been quite impressed by the school's transition to distance learning and community engagement during the coranvirus pandemic. SMS is a great value and I highly recommend the school to other parents!... Read 88 reviews

Alum: I grew up in Chicago, where few students attend boarding school, so I didn't know what to expect when I traveled across the country for high school. I'm so thankful I took that risk! Chatham Hall was a warm, challenging, exciting environment. It opened up opportunities I never would have had anywhere else. As a student on scholarship, I felt consistently valued and supported. After graduation, I came to appreciate the experience even more: I arrived at college far better prepared than almost any of my peers. Through college, a doctorate, and now a STEM career, my Chatham Hall education has remained a touchstone. Most importantly, Chatham Hall feels like home to this day. Not bad for a place that sounded so far from home when I first considered it.... Read 50 reviews
