Tower Hill School: A Path That Makes a Difference for a Lifetime.

Tower Hill is a co-educational, three-year-old through grade 12 independent school, that provides an enriched and challenging college preparatory program. Tower Hill's enrollment over the past several years has been approximately 755 students, the highest in the history of the school since our founding in 1919.

At Tower Hill academic excellence and successful college placement are givens—this is our reputation and our heritage. Our curriculum is well-grounded in the classics and, at the same time, promotes understanding of today’s world in all its global complexities.

Tower Hill is a community that cultivates character, integrity, solid values and a passion for learning. Living our motto Many Things Done Well, we challenge students to bring their best to everything they do in an environment that balances academics, arts, athletics and service to the community—all of which students are required to participate.

Excellent teaching is paramount at Tower Hill. Our learning environment constantly challenges students to go beyond the usual and expected. Our state-of-the-art 45-acre campus includes SMART Boards in most classrooms and recently renovated athletic and physical education facilities, including two turf fields and the #1-ranked high school baseball field in the country.

Acknowledging our historical Christian tradition, we encourage diversity in the religious, racial, economic and ethnic composition of our student body.
