This is a wonderful school. Not for every child. Academics are extremely difficult. Work load is intense and athletics are competitive. Safe and caring of all children. Strict on discipline and manners. An excellent college prep school. No snobs here.

Our second child is now at Peddie. Wonderful experience, caring faculty. Headmaster is fantastic. We have experience with another elite school but Peddie is more nurturing of the entire student.

My son is a sophomore and I was very worried about him boarding. Not anymore. You will not find a better school. The headmaster is wonderful, the support of the staff is excellent and the kids are great! It has been a great investment in my son's education

Our daughter is a senior. It was hard to adjust to her not living at home. The school is a safe enviorment with a caring staff. The academics and facilities are top notch.

My son is a sophomore at Peddie. What a great experience thus far. The teachers and staff are fantastic. The curriculum challenging. The selection of AP courses is great. They just constructed a new state-of-the art science building and are in progress of redoing the history house.

My daughter attended the Peddie School She had an amazing experience there. She was a student from a prestegious Manhattan school and the level of education was comparable. The care from the teachers, dorm support and principal leadership is hard to find. She is now in Philadephia and keeps contacts with her friends. Has been on the honor roll and was very well prepared for college. Many of the problems that teens get into did not happen here as faculty and sports coaches kept students too busy to want to be involved. If you have the good fortune and manage to get your child in this school you will indeed be lucky. mhk

My daughter is a graduate of this school and received a wonderful education (academically) and truly superior overall educational experience. She continued her education at a very southern college and is now in the medical profession. Peddie gave her the basis to achieve her academic and professional goals.
