A truly beautiful campus in Concord, Massachusetts, Middlesex School centers around an open quad with beautiful brick buildings. I was fortunate to visit on an inviting, snow covered day (not the pleasant summer shot to the right).

It’s exam week and I saw countless student groups studying together.

The library seemed full to capacity. Informal student groups gathered in the common areas; others shot baskets in the gym to get some physical activity in; some were caught up in conversation anticipating Christmas break approaching this week.

Students described their campus as energetic and diverse, with many committed and talented students and faculty with varied talents and interests. All spoke highly of their community and their accomplishments- in and out of the classroom.

Middlesex students experience a rich and demanding curriculum with smart boards classrooms, Harkness tables, strong visual and performing art programs, Chinese through the AP level, an observatory and much more.

The complete campus- physical plant and students- present and express a sense of a great community.

One student said “the only thing he would change might be the food”.

Happy Holidays!
