We cannot say enough good things about Culver Academies! It has truly changed the lives of our children and our entire family. The focus on academics, mind, body and spirit have created well-rounded adults that are ready and prepared to move into the next chapter of their young adult lives. We truly appreciate Culver Academies strong sense of community, rigorous academic programs, diverse extracurricular activities, and emphasis on character development through its military and leadership training programs!
I would have asked my parents to send me to Culver Academies if I knew it existed. Culver Academies, with its stunning 1,800-acre lakeside campus, blends academic excellence, leadership, and fitness into its philosophy. The diverse community fosters global friendships, enriching the experience. Its alumni often attend top universities and military academies, highlighting its unique focus on leadership over traditional military training. It's only 2 hours away from Chicago and it's pretty easy for parents in the U.S. and foreign countries to visit the campus due to its proximity to one of the largest international airports in the U.S. So many boarding schools focus only on academics and miss what are really important for teenage children living away from home. I have complete trust in Culver. As a parent, I wholeheartedly recommend it for its unparalleled education and development opportunities.
Culver is more than a school; it's a cherished haven of tradition and values. As a second home for my children, its transformative impact is evident in their growth. From the enchanting summer programs to the profound experiences within the boarding high school community, Culver has been pivotal in shaping them into remarkable individuals. Majestic parades and pride-filled events on the campus are etched in our hearts. The values of leadership, character, and community fostered here are priceless. As we approach the final year, Culver leaves us smiling through tears, grateful for the invaluable gifts of memories and traditions, anticipating the bright futures it has empowered our children to create.
