Westminster School enjoys a reputation as one of the finest college-preparatory schools, and certainly one of the very top small boarding schools, in the country. The challenging academic program, grounded in the liberal arts tradition, prepares students in grades 9-12 and postgraduate for academic success and the rigors of college while cultivating in them a love of learning that becomes a lifelong habit. Westminster School is a diverse, close-knit community of 89 faculty and 385 students (two-thirds boarding, one-third day students) from across the country and around the world. Nearly one third of the students receive financial aid from the more than $3.2 million awarded each year.

For more than 130 years, Taft has welcomed bright, curious, and talented students into a warm, deeply connected community where they live, learn, contribute, and grow as scholars, athletes, artists, and global citizens. Widely recognized as a leading college preparatory boarding school in New England, Taft serves 590 students in grades 9–12 and post-graduates. Guided by Taft’s Portrait of a Learner, students develop the habits of mind, character, and purpose needed to thrive in a complex, interconnected world. Through more than 200 courses, global and community-based learning opportunities, distinctive leadership programs, a strong commitment to community and belonging, and robust offerings in the arts and athletics, students are challenged and supported in equal measure. Taft is a place where intellectual challenge is always delivered with heart—and where every student is known, supported, and inspired to become their best self.
