I live in Cheshire. CA is a small school with two academic specialties: International Baccalaureate (IB) and the Roxbury Program, which helps students that need extra attention. It has good athletics, many go on to college sports. Nice location in Cheshire, a quiet, upper class, traditional NE town. Walking distance (5 minutes) to food shopping, Marshalls, fast food, restaurants, banks, beauty salons, and public library. Currently has a large international Asian population, also has a sizeable day student population. My DD does not go there, (just got accepted to Choate, which is 15 minutes away) but we know a lot of locals who attend. I know some of the staff and am impressed by their kindness, professionalism, and enthusiasm. Has a 100% 4 year scholarship for 1 Cheshire student a year, and there is stiff competition, considered a huge honor. If you PM me, I could look for some emails of parents that I know.
