Great. Our son blossomed at Pierrepont. He was a mediocre student in middle school, but with great love of learning and aptitude. Admitted to a first tier college, graduated with honors. Graduate degree quickly followed.Never missed the absence of intercollegiate sports, senior prom, bake sales, PTA, 'professional' administrators, state certified educators, layers of administration, tolerance of savagery in the name of inclusion and all the other stupidity of 'public' education.

My son attended Pierrepont for 8 years. I cannot think of a school that would have been better for him. The education was top shelf with instruction gauged to his learning style and his interests. They created classes just for him in areas where he needed particular focus. The educators were extremely well qualified in there subject matter and demonstrated a real passion for teaching and developing the students. The small size of the school creates a true learning community where students of all ages interact in very productive ways. I couldn't have been happier with my son's education and the environment that has been created at this very special place.

I have two children at Pierrepont and can't say enough good things about it. It's rigorous academically, but the focus is on love of learning and creatively. It combines the best of the classic liberal arts education (humanities, science, math & languages, with outstanding art education (music, theater, dance and studio art); all taught by teachers with not only outstanding academic credentials, but many of them have significant professional careers in their fields, as well. It's a very rich and caring environment. One of my children was turned off and demotivated at her previous school. Now both of my kids are blossoming. It's a small school, which is part of what makes it great for the right students. My kids have very different personalities and both love it.
