What is it like to attend Marvelwood?

Marvelwood is the first school I have ever attended where I feel comfortable speaking up and taking my turn to lead. The last thing I expected to experience in high school was to feel like everyone in my school is my friend. Whatever it is, it's a level of respect and kindness that I am so grateful to experience every day.

Is the marvelwoods school the least of your problems?

But to be honest, that is the least of our problems… Although my goal here at The Marvelwoods School isn’t to give you financial education, when it comes to college education and trying to cover the loan amounts, it’s something that everyone needs advice about it.

What is the annual fund at Marvelwood?

Marvelwood Annual Fund. The Annual Fund enables us to offer the unique and invaluable Marvelwood experience. Your donations come to life through our dedicated teachers, small classes, creative programs, experiential education, athletics, and much more. Each gift is a vote of confidence in Marvelwood's mission.

WE CAN DO THAT

We are a traditional boarding school with non-traditional approaches to college-preparatory learning. For us, teaching is personal. We know our students well, and we are skilled at intentionally directing (and sometimes redirecting) instruction that will connect with their unique skills and personalities.

Academic Philosophy & Curriculum

At Marvelwood, we believe in accommodating abilities, talents, interests and learning styles as much as possible as students progress through our academic program. Curriculum is organized into the following academic divisions: Humanities (English and History), World Languages, Science, Mathematics, Arts, and English as a Second Language (ESL).

Supporting our Students

At Marvelwood, we are committed to the belief that every student learns differently, and that these differences are to be appreciated and accommodated through a combination of intensively targeted efforts on the part of the faculty to make even the most challenging college preparatory curricula accessible to students of all abilities, talents, interests and learning styles.
