Voice and Choice

We've taken the standard of excellence that comes
from a proven college prep experience and made it personal.

 

No two people are the same — in their interests or their aspirations. Pomfret academics reflect this truth with a curriculum that challenges, engages, and inspires each student. With 55 honors and advanced college prep courses to choose from, our distinctive brand of education has been carefully design to anticipate your every need and to prepare you for a lifetime of learning. We have the courses to support you, the courses to challenge you, the programs to inspire you, the environment to prepare you, and the people to cheer you on. At Pomfret, it's personal.
