LEARN – LIVE – EXCEL is what Marianapolis Preparatory School is all about besides being a warm, diverse and open Catholic boarding school. The school offers traditional academic subjects, advanced placement courses and a strong ESL program in which their goal is to mainstream 100% of their ESL students from twenty different countries.

I found the 300 acre campus in Thompson, Connecticut absolutely beautiful! Dorms, classrooms, labs, playing fields, studios, and hiking trails are all surrounded by the most beautiful fieldstone walls. Students have the opportunity to get to the next level athletically and academically. Students benefit from many athletic offerings including golf and the athletic program presents challenges at all ability levels. A student can take up a new sport and have the opportunity to get to the next level athletically.

Every person I met both faculty and students were friendly, enthusiastic, and had only great things to say about their experiences at Marianapolis- academically, athletically, socially and college placement-wise. Teachers go out of their way to be helpful. Current campus projects include renovation on a gymnasium and adding a dance studio this year.

Marianapolis is a place where you definitely can grow academically and athletically and it also worth your visit!
