Hello! I am a senior at the Hotchkiss School, so I would be happy to give any insight or advice to students and families considering their choices for boarding school. If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Why did you choose Hotchkiss? How did you find balance? What was the hardest part of your journey thus far? The best part? Did anything surprise you? How do you plan to engage with the Hotchkiss community after graduation?

Thank you @sun3 for volunteering to be a resource. I do not have a horse in the race, but will raise the following questions for the benefit of other families:
- What other options did you consider than Hotchkiss? What were the biggest factors that drew you to the school?
- Have you found the student body to be somewhat cliquey, or would you say it is well integrated in terms of race and socioeconomic backgrounds?
- Can you rate the quality of your teachers?
- What can you tell us about college advising at Hotchkiss?
- What changes would you like to see at the school?
Thank you!
