Are you looking for a middle/high school that can offer a difference in your child’s ability to get into his/her college of choice?  Or are you looking for a school free from the binding ties of the Common Core?   If so, visit one of the Knox School’s “Take A Look” Days.  Meet the new Head of School, members of the Admissions Office, faculty, students and parents who will take you around the beautiful 48-acre campus and answer your questions. 

The Knox School is a co-ed, non-denominational, college-preparatory day and boarding school for grades 6-12 plus post graduate.  The small class sizes increases academic achievement.  Beginning in sixth grade, Knox offers a more personalized approach in the middle school that guides bright young minds through the critical years of school.  Students learn in newly renovated classrooms with expert instructors preparing all students for success in a rigorous college preparatory curriculum.  Knox students learn to be exceptional in many ways (as communicators, as decision-makers and as leaders) and are equipped with a strong moral compass and strength of character to become responsible young adults.

Over the past two years, leading colleges and universities awarded Knox graduates over $2 million in scholarships and grants.   Recent graduates were accepted to MIT, Stanford, Cornell, Carnegie Mellon, NYU, University of Miami, Syracuse, Boston University, to name a few.  In high school, Knox offers AP and honors classes, character-building experiences, visual and performing arts, and competitive athletics, including equestrian and crew, football, lacrosse, wrestling, volleyball, soccer, tennis, baseball and softball.  A Knox education is also very affordable with day tuition reduced to $10,500.

To register or for more information or directions, please call the Knox Admissions Office:  Susan Day-Holsinger at 631-686-1600 ext. 414 or visit www.knoxschool.org.  Learn to be exceptional at The Knox School!
