While Nonnewaug is a good school to attend if you are a basketball player or a student enrolled in the agriculture program, if you do not participate in the favored activities, you will not receive the same opportunities as everyone else and you might not have the same experience.

My experience at Nonnewaug has been fulfilling. I have had courses over the years that have challenged me, and teachers that have supported me. Nonnewaug has given me great friendships and incredible opportunities. I have worked alongside the town of Woodbury and Bethlehem to create a better community inside and outside of the school's campus.

Beautiful new building and really engaging faculty. The building desperately needed to be modernized and now that it has, it has everything anyone could want. Overwhelming amount of AP or UConn ECE courses and the agriscience option is yet another pull for environmentally minded kids.
