The Winchendon School

The Winchendon School is a small boarding and day school in Massachusetts, where about 80% of students live on campus, creating a close-knit, family-like atmosphere. Interested in pursuing sports professionally, studying architecture, or designing games? At Winchendon, you can focus on all that and much more. Beyond problem-solving, presentation skills, and critical thinking, a large part of the learning is centered around student interests. A key element is the ColLABs program – a time when students step away from desks and traditional classes to dive into what excites them and apply the knowledge they have gained. Winchendon helps students reach their highest potential in the areas they are most passionate about. And if the school doesn’t offer a course a student is interested in, it will help arrange it through a partnership with a local university. The Winchendon School is dedicated to ensuring that every graduate is fully prepared for both future studies and their career.

At The Winchendon School, students benefit from small micro-classes (averaging 8–10 students), giving them an excellent opportunity to excel – especially those who learn differently from most others.
