I can't believe I won't be coming back this fall. I think about this all the time. But at the end of the day it's life and we all have to move on to our next chapter. My time at Berkshire was amazing. Nothing but respect to all the teachers, faculty, staff and people that made it home to me. I wouldn't changed anything about my experience. If I had to do all I would all over again. Berkshire wasn't just a school to me. It was my home, it was where I learned to navigate this life thing. All I can say is that I am grateful for the experience and life memories that I made with my friends, teachers, etc. thank you Berkshire for everything.

Berkshire is exactly what a New England Boarding School experience is supposed to look like. Students are well cared for and looked after by dedicated faculty. The facilities at Berkshire at top notch and even the older buildings are kept up to look brand new.

Coming from a student perspective, Berkshire is a very welcoming and close knit community. You can see this in dorm life, sports teams, in classrooms, the different programs in the arts. One of my personal favorite things about Berkshire is how you can feel free to be 100% of your true authentic self.
