My 4 years at Holderness were some of the best years of my life. This is where I made some of my best friends and learned my most valuable lessons. The classes were challenging and the homework was sizeable, but the teachers made sure to keep class interesting and engaging.

The community feel of Holderness is incredible. Because the school is only 300 students, the sense of belonging and community is high. The campus is quaint and the facilities are excellent. Holderness is the perfect school for kids who love combining strong academic rigor with great team sports, especially snow sports like ski racing and snowboarding.
7/30/2024
Holderness is about the student but engages the family. Students can seek excellence in academics AND sports or music or other. The school tailors for every child's ability and family's goals. College prep is better than most even to the most exclusive colleges. One of the most enriching and outstanding experiences for our family.
