Boarding school life offers a unique advantage when it comes to college preparation.

Let Darrow show you how to make the boarding school experience one of a kind.
We’re Here to Help along the Way
advisors
Every Darrow student has a faculty advisor who supports the student in navigating academic and personal challenges and understands the student’s total experience. The advisor also corresponds with parents to update them about how their child is doing. Faculty advisors provide a critical connection between parents and the school community. A Darrow advisor is a mentor, counselor, and advocate all rolled into one.
