    The Chapin School Reviews

    I have been at Chapin since Kindergarten, and they have supported me through my entire journey. During my time here I learned I have dyslexia and other learning disabilities and Chapin's learning resources and faculty have been there to guarantee my success. They have excellent resources for all your needs and if you feel like Chapin is lacking in a department they will help fill that hole. I can attest to the fact the Chapin tries to keep up with the times as they have changed a lot during my time here. For example, they have always been at the forefront of the newest strategies to best educate the students such as getting rid of AP classes and implementing new teaching techniques like more class discussions. I highly recommend you send your child or come here because I would not have wanted to grow up in development in any other institution. I am not saying that Chapin is without faults, but they always have good intentions to make this environment the best it can be.

    I truly enjoyed my experience at Chapin. At times, it felt incredibly hectic and overwhelming, but the institution is truly superior in college and career readiness, as well as college matriculation.
    Though Chapin is a diverse and open community and has progressed to take more active stands social justice issues over the years, there is always room to improve. I think we need to focus more on action in our community. I have been thinking about this for some time, and I think Chapin should hold its own high-school wide diversity conference during a town hall meeting slot in which we would simulate some of the same discussions and activities from the Student Diversity Leadership Conference for all of us to experience. I think that, if that meeting were successful, it would be eye-opening to then include other inter-school students in this discussion, and host our own Diversity day. Also, as an individual I will of course continue to try to make our community as safe a space as possible both by voicing my own experiences and also, as an ally to other marginalized groups, by giving space for others to use their own voices.
