Celebrating 125 Years
Founded in 1894, Pomfret is an independent, coeducational, college preparatory boarding and day school located in Pomfret, Connecticut. Today we serve 350 students in grades 9 through 12 (with post graduates), hailing from 23 states and 23 countries. Brought to life by an exceptional faculty, we are both bold and practical in our approach — intensely focused on the interests and needs of our students, and pragmatic in our efforts to prepare them for the joys and rigors of college, work, and life.
Be Inspired
We teach you how to think, not what to think. Curiosity, passion, and purpose — these are the real lessons.
Be Together
We’re more than a collection of individuals; we’re a community of friends. It’s what we do together that sets us apart.
Be Transformed
We push you to keep striving, keep growing, and keep doing the things you love. Because, in the end, there are no ends.
Set on a stunning 500-acre hilltop in Northeastern Connecticut, our campus is less than an hour from Boston, Hartford, and Providence, and only 3 hours from New York City. Our classrooms are vibrant and engaging, our dorms foster deep personal relationships, and our advisory system encourages intergenerational connections that truly distinguish us from many other great schools. In recent years, our graduates have matriculated to some of the country’s best universities. And beyond college, our alumni have gone on to — quite literally — change the world.
