I don’t have any first hand information on any, but one of DS’s best friends will be attending Suffield in September. His family has a lot of BS attendees and looked very broadly. The kid chose Suffield over several others, including Choate, I think largely due to the atmosphere. Really smart kid, laid-back, excellent musician, athletic but more at a recreational level. He wanted to be close to a town, so he didn’t look at some of the more remote schools. Suffield does not have a hockey team. My son had a very favorable impression from chatting with one of the AOs at a secondary school fair, but it didn’t make it onto his list. I’ve been on the Westminster campus several times and it’s beautiful. I think there’s a large day-student population, and I don’t think the sports are at the same level as some of the other similar schools.
