“In the classroom, I learned important skills in all academic disciplines. I've learned new musical literacy skills, how to perform rigorous research, and how to write a term paper. Outside of the classroom, I've risen to leadership positions, tried new activities, and made incredible friends.”
Sophie Schonberger,
Class of 2022
Yale University
“I would tell the student that becoming a member of the Hamden Hall community is a commitment that through hard work and dedication develops into a truly irreplaceable and fulfilling high school experience. I would tell the parent that Hamden Hall will become a second home for your child as they will create amazing memories while there.”
Marlon Ward,

“Hamden Hall is a great place to go if you want to challenge yourself academically while also experiencing a tight-knit, friendly,
and inclusive community.”
Alexander Lee,

“What makes Hamden Hall special is the amount of individual support each student gets. It’s pretty unique to have teachers who are
as invested in their students as our teachers are, and I credit
much of my success to their support.”
Rahul Kapur,
Class of 2022
Northeastern University
“Students and teachers alike are so willing to get to know each other and help each other out in any way that they can. This community gives students the support system to strive for unique opportunities that are rare to find at any other school.”
Michael Ferneini,
Class of 2022
Duke University
“Hamden Hall has given me the chance to chase all of my interests.
The smaller community lends itself to a more collaborative
environment, as you're able to really get to know the people
in the same classes and clubs as you.”
