As the parent of two current Middlesex students, I could not be more thrilled with the incredible education and transformative experience my daughters are having. From the moment we first stepped onto the beautiful campus, we knew Middlesex was something special. The academic rigor at Middlesex is unparalleled, with a curriculum that challenges students to think critically, write persuasively, and problem-solve creatively. The faculty are simply world-class. The individual attention and mentorship my daughters receive is invaluable in helping them reach their full potential. My daughters' are blossoming into intellectually curious, socially conscious, and emotionally mature individuals, poised to take on the challenges of the world. I am forever grateful to Middlesex School for providing such an exceptional educational experience and laying the foundation for my daughters' future success.
This was our extended family's first experience with boarding school and, despite Covid during my son's freshman/sophomore years, and changes in heads of school twice, it was an excellent experience, academically, athletically, and overall. My son learned so much and made a large, strong group of friends who are great kids. The teachers/coaches truly care and look out for the kids. The writing program is *excellent,* and the mindfulness program very useful.
Our daughter just graduated in May and she truly found herself at Middlesex. The writing program coupled with the small class size allowed her to excel academically. Additionally, she participated in varsity sports and chorus where she was able to juggle arts and athletics. Her advisor will be a life long mentor. The college advising program was instrumental in her college search process and their advice was spot on. Middlesex is a very special place and this is a great fit for a student looking to dig in academically and become part of a community. Your student should plan on hours of homework and consistent office hours with teachers who are always willing to help. Saturday classes are still a demanding part of academic life here and are an expectation even on game days. We feel confident that our daughter will thrive in college as she is more than prepared to find continued success given the foundation that she developed at Middlesex!
