I really appreciate your insights and completely agree with your comments about the well-rounded education at Groton and its peer schools. I’m exploring this topic to help my daughter finalize her school list—particularly to determine whether some of the more humanities-focused schools can still provide strong support if she decides to pursue STEM in college.

I’m aware that many boarding schools don’t have dedicated, faculty-led initiatives to help students compete in STEM competitions for individual awards. I’m simply wondering whether there are enough faculty-sponsored activities or internal/external research opportunities for students to go beyond the regular curriculum.
