You will learn together, and you will grow together. You will experience high school in ways that you cannot imagine. It will change your life.

A Place of Limitless Opportunities -- you come to Andover because of the 1,100 other students who come to Andover.

They are, as our founding charter calls for them to be, "youth from every quarter." They`re talented in quirky and serious ways, they have ideas and opinions like- but mostly unlike-yours, they have fascinating histories and surprising ambitions and generous hearts.

They come because they love ideas and learning and discovering.

And they come because maybe you will be here too. One of the Latin mottoes on our seal translates as "the end depends on the beginning." Andover is a place where we`re always beginning.

We`re always discovering new opportunities, experimenting with a new approach, finding courage to take risks.

We`re always looking for new ways to reach out to people in need, to work together with new communities.
