I am a junior from ShangHai, China. Gunn truly shaped me as a well rounded students. This is a school with a small community so you really get to know every single one on campus. More importanly each one of them are people that support you with their heart. I was here since freshman year, and I have been in the art department, field hockey, choir...At Gunn, we truly care about students' public speaking skills, so that we have CJD curriculum four year long that each year we were taught to learn how to advocate for ourselves. A great community that all of us know each other very well.

I am a first year boarder at the Frederick Gunn School and already this school has become my home. In the classroom I feel challenged yet very supported. I am a three season athlete and I love every one of my teams, we have such a great bond and we have so much passion for the sport. The school community is so fun, we have so many weekend activities where we all gather together, we gather at school meeting, fire pit Fridays, and sports games. we show up for band, orchestra, and chorus at the winter and spring concerts (Im not musically inclined but I LOVE listening to their performances). Coming here was the best decision I have ever made.

So far, I have loved every second of it. It is a great school and a wonderful community. I have met many new friends and new staff that I am very close with. I played hockey and currently finishing up my season of lacrosse. My experience with the athletics has been extremely professional and very fun. The Frederick Gunn School is a great community.

My God, the Gunnery is preppie. How dare they pontificate on character when they embody the values of social stratification and inequality? If you a a member or aspiring member of the ruling class, then step right up.

My daughter has thrived at the Gunnery academically, athletically and socially because she has been challenged to push boundaries and explore new opportunities. The faculty have been incredibly responsive to our questions regarding her academic progress and the individual level of attention is amazi...

My son is ADD, very bright. Also very willful. Admittedly, not the easiest kid. But we feel that he was written off early at the Gunnery, and not given a chance to adjust. There are some very mediocre teachers and advisors who shouldn't be teaching in any school. Completely uninspiring about their s...

Incredible faculty dedicated to developing and challenging students to achieve personal development goals tailored to each student. As parents we are thrilled with the small and personal community environment of this school. A true sense of community can be found here and we are grateful for the ind...
