Some schools like Suffield Academy will offer merit aid to high achieving applicants and offers sports scholarships. We looked all over New England. Suffield was recommended to us by an an acquaintance and my daughter fell in love with it. Strong academics and athletics…but most importantly a really NICE student body and faculty. After having been in a socially cut throat, while academically rigorous, private school for 11 years, Suffield is a breath of fresh air. A place where kids will be pushed academically as much as they want and is appropriate for them, but will also feel welcomed and supported. I think it is a hidden gem in the boarding school world and is often overlooked. Charlie Cahn is an amazing headmaster and has done incredible things with the program and physical campus.
