I had a great experience at Berkshire School. My teachers and the faculty made it feel like home. The community was extremely welcoming and supportive.

I spent a very enjoyable four years as a student at Berkshire. I chose to attend because of the small, kind community, and that is exactly what I experienced there. Teachers and adults are very accessible to students, and are eager to help them succeed. While there is certainly a friend for everyone at Berkshire, I found it difficult to find my footing there at first. It can be hard to find your place if you're not an athlete.

Berkshire is exactly what a New England Boarding School experience is supposed to look like. Students are well cared for and looked after by dedicated faculty. The facilities at Berkshire at top notch and even the older buildings are kept up to look brand new.
