Salem is unique as it is a single sex education for high school girls with a rich 250 year history. The class size is small and the teachers are very enthusiastic about teaching and truly know their students.

My Salem experience was exceptional. Prior to Salem I excelled in academics. Salem provided a stretch for me academically that I didn't know I needed. In addition Salem provided access to culture , the arts, and exposure to opportunities I could not imagine. My very best friend of all time and I met at Salem. She was two years ahead. My fellow classmates and I remain connected after many years. The Salem experience is unique and one I will value always.

did not like it, don't care about your financial situation. love my friends that i made there but the school itself behaves like a company to only take your money.
