What Makes Darrow Unique?


Darrow is a one-of-a-kind college preparatory boarding and day school that’s remarkable for both its campus and its character. We’re located in a Shaker village, where the historic buildings and agricultural land provide an ideal setting for hands-on learning, environmental stewardship, and the cultivation of personal responsibility. Our strengths as a school—our values—make Darrow a place where students are empowered by all of their living and learning experiences.

The unique contributions of each one of our students and the special values we espouse. These include academic achievement, authentic and meaningful relationships, creativity in the arts and other endeavors, teamwork in athletics and service activities, sustainability on our campus and in our worldview, and the value that unites us most strongly: community. Darrow is where people’s diverse talents and perspectives strengthen our community, and where shared values and common goals bring us together. Darrow values community. Darrow values you.
