Chatham Hall has been a home away from home for my daughters. It is a special place supported my girls as they developed a sense of agency and voice. I am grateful that they had the opportunity to grow into their authentic selves at Chatham Hall.

I graduated back in 2008 and transitioned easily to an academically competitive college and later became a physician. The teachers at CH were of great quality and I reflect positively on those days of high school. I didn't feel that the rural setting or religious affiliation detracted from my experience. I enjoyed horseback riding recreationally (I didn't show) throughout the years and appreciated that sports were scheduled into our days. I have very fond memories for my advisor who became a trusted confidant for many years following graduation.

I wasn't very happy in the years I was at Chatham. I didn't have much in common with the other girls and was very lonely and missed my family. Despite this I don't regret that I went to Chatham.The school stood me in good stance for two important reasons. The religious emphasis was phenomenal, and I learned how to survive on my own apart from my immediate family. The academics also stood me in good stance. The school prepared me for life.

She has a strong commitment to her advanced education and knows how to get to where she wants to go....

Best decision that I ever made! From the moment we walked through the door for our first tour, to post-graduate visits, I have loved this school. My daughter learned so much at Chatham - not just the book material, but she learned critical thinking, citizenship, kindness, and so much more. She was c...

Chatham Hall is a wonderful school and, more importantly, a wonderful community! It is academically rigorous without creating divisive competition between students. Though the course load can be very heavy, there is always support from teachers, academic resource counselors, advisors, and friends. T...

Chatham Hall is an absolutely excellent choice for young women. My niece attended and was blown away by the tight community feel and the wide range of unique programs. There are opportunities to take service travel trips to South Africa and Cuba - and an outstanding Leaders in Residence program that...
