Discover Church Farm School

There is so much motivation here, whether it’s seeing the other students working so hard and succeeding, the mentoring from upperclassmen and advisors or the genuine investment in our kids we witness from every adult on campus. - Morgan Beever P'20, P'15
Every boy at Church Farm School is chosen for his potential to grow as an impactful leader. Our community is very diverse, with students coming from across the country and around the world. Students gain the type of cultural competence needed to be successful adults; our young men bring the world to Church Farm School. Central to Church Farm School is the boarding experience, although we also welcome day students into our community. Our residential character extends far beyond our 10 cottages and 150-acre campus. It influences every aspect of life here, fostering common experiences in our dorms, on our athletic fields and in our chapel services. Our teachers reside with their families on or near campus, and participate fully in the life of the school—and the lives of our boys.

The school’s 75 exceptional faculty and staff members guide 200 students through a rigorous curriculum that fosters outstanding academic development, with a strong focus on STEM and ethical leadership. Students also experience a full program of athletic, artistic and spiritual activities that create a caring, close community. Church Farm School engages its students through a curriculum that accentuates academic excellence, values and character and service leadership. Our class size averages 10 students, with a student-to-faculty ratio of five-to-one.

Church Farm School students are going on to do great things with their lives. For the past seven years, 100% of our graduates have been accepted into leading four-year colleges and universities. We hope you will take a closer look at Church Farm School.
"The opportunities and lessons at CFS allowed me to work alongside my brothers to pursue our dreams and fulfill our goals.

From the students and teachers to the inspirational alumni, the uplifting camaraderie makes the Church Farm experience remarkable." – Temidayo Bambe ’22, Amherst College ’26
