Stoneleigh-Burnham School - Review #12

Attending Stoneleigh-Burnham was one of the greatest experiences I had as I journeyed toward becoming an independent, self-motivated young woman. Unlike the standard high school and other boarding schools, Stoneleigh offers a greater acceptance of individuality and promotes that kind of thinking. I learned to trust myself and to be more confident.

Being there helped me to become more confident; I cannot think of a better recommendation for a young woman than that.

I cannot think of anything.

I lived being independent and feeling trusted and responsible.

Living at school, away from my parents, actually strengthened my relationship with them.

The individual attention from faculty who wanted to see us succeed helped me to become more confident and inspired. I was well prepared for college and graduate school.

The athletic programs were awesome! The coaches/trainers saw the students as individuals and tried to help us improve. Because we live on campus and don’t have 7-hours of classes wasting our time each day, finding a balance between academic and athletic success was easy.

I am not a theatre person. I loved the music program. No pressure, but I learned to live playing the piano again which has remained with me, even when I was in college

Mountain Day!!! Best day. Every year.

The dorms were nice, comfortable enough.

Great selection of food for everyone, including homemade items as well.

Beautiful scenery and trails. I went into town rarely. I didn’t need to.

We had dances and movies. Perhaps could have had more.
