Far From Ordinary
Studded by maples and ringed by stone walls, our 500-acre Hilltop campus exudes New England charm. The original buildings were designed by the celebrated Beaux-Arts architect Ernest Flagg and the grounds were laid out by world-renowned landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted.
Today, the Hilltop is a wonderful amalgam of old and new, blending iconic landmarks like Clark Memorial Chapel with airy facilities like the Centennial Academic and Arts Center.In addition to this manicured campus core, Pomfret is bounded by several hundred acres of open space. The wilder side of Pomfret includes natural meadows, forested uplands, miles of walking trails, and Wappoquia Brook. This Quiet Corner of Connecticut is less than an hour from Boston, Hartford, and Providence, and only three hours from New York City.
