Smallest Student Body

All Schools

400+ students

200-400 students < 200 students More

Among "Schools with 400+ Students", view the boarding schools with the smallest student bodies (2020-21).
School size comparisons are based on overall population of the school, not the number of boarding students at the school.
The balance between boarders and day students can also be another factor to consider when looking at school size.
