So happy to read this, albeit several months later! DS will be a prep at Hotchkiss this fall and we are thrilled for him. It’s the Goldilocks school as far as I’m concerned–everything we were looking for in the “just right” measure. Academically rigorous, but with a super supportive Teaching and Learning Center; a rural campus (with it’s own farm!) but only two hours from our home in NYC; the perfect mix of traditional and progressive; global in outlook with a warm, supportive community; foreign students who come from a wide range of countries, not just the 2 or 3 usually represented at US boarding schools; kids who are brainy, sporty, and artistic in seemingly equal measure; not too big, and not too small… just the right size at just under 600 students … I could go on and on.
