Could not recommend the school enough. Putney taught me how to love learning for the sake of learning. The relationship between student and teacher is truly unlike anything you will ever see. Attending this institution may have been the best decision I ever made and set me up for success in ways that were previously unimaginable.

As an alumni, I would like to say that Putney has taught me so about the world. I've also learned so much about myself and how I learn. I've had a dedicated amount of teachers by my side to help me when I was struggling. I am genuinely so so incredibly grateful for education that I was able to get at Putney and I know that would not have been able to get it anywhere else. Putney truly made me feel ready to move onto the next chapter of my life, though I was so sad that chapter was closing.

Both were challenged, supported and guided through a very nearly perfect high school experience and into gre...

The Putney School is the very best thing that has ever happened to me. Here, I learned so many things that I was interested in, but never had the chance to get involved with before. For examples, my Fiber Arts teacher helped me so much while I tried to learn fashion design (fashion design is not off...

I just read what someone wrote about Putney, and I'd point out several points to prevent misunderstanding. This person said, "There was never a spare moment for my personal artwork advancement," but that's not at all true. Although school does not emphasize on grades, but I got straight As on all of...
