Beyond University School

Our alumni continue to serve as the best example of the value of the exceptional educational experience provided at University School. We could not be prouder of the things they go on to achieve. In speaking with our alumni, you will hear several recurring themes, foremost among them that the foundations of their academic excellence were laid here on our campus. While in high school, they routinely report back that they feel well ahead of their peers in all academic areas and are thankful for the level of challenge and support they received at University School.

The results speak for themselves. Our students are desirable to both the best local high schools and then to the best national universities.
