Summary: The Student Life program at Stuart Hall is designed as a progressive set of experiences to help students pursue existing passions and explore new interests, all while building the relationships and having the experiences that will shape who they become.At Stuart Hall, school happens far beyond the boundaries of what people usually think of when you say “school,” and this is certainly true for Student Life. Learning happens far beyond the academic day. Leadership development goes beyond the traditional senior roles to include students of any grade level who are ready to lead. Lifelong friendships are formed beyond the traditional divisions of grade, class, or boarding/day. And experiences happen beyond students’ usual interests as they try something new in our co-curricular programming. While we go beyond the traditional school experience, we always keep our core values at the center. In our classrooms, in our advisory program, in our dormitories, and in everything we do, we strive to make sure every student feels happy, safe, known, and loved. Stuart Hall has long been known as the school where a person is accepted for who they are, welcomed into the community, and invited to live, learn, and grow with others who may have different interests but all share these values.

Summary: Our Residence Life Program at Stuart Hall School takes the college-preparatory experience one step further by introducing students to campus living. Our students enjoy the freedom of living in a safe, small town where local coffee shops, restaurants, stores, farmers' markets, and other points of interest are just blocks away from our historic campus.In-town boarding provides a venue like no other to learn valuable skills of personal initiative, community living, and respect for local culture. While always maintaining the utmost standards for student safety and care, we encourage our boarders to both experience life beyond our campus boundaries and take part in the life of the School.

Summary: Our College Counseling program focuses on personal attention throughout the college process to help students and parents navigate what can often seem an overwhelming process. We get to know every student personally, meeting with them frequently and conferring regularly with their teachers and parents. Additionally, we encourage students to engage in a process of self-discovery through self-inventory exercises, reflection, and introspection. Together, we build a customized application strategy for each student that takes into account their personality, passions, interests, and academic performance.
