Darlington School is a good school with a lots of different classes, good facilities, and friendly teachers. However, the food here really need to be improved. And the location of the school is a little bit remote, boarding students can not get a lot of things they want nearby.

3.0 Sophomore

1/22/2021

Darlington is a very good school overall, but it still has some areas where it can improve. It has great teachers and an excellent curriculum but it's mandatory meetings, things like advisory/chapel, dorm meetings, and girls/boys life, are sometimes unnecessary.
