Northfield Mount Hermon School

Mount Hermon, Massachusetts, USA
Co-Ed, No Religious Affiliation

view map request catalog

Northfield Mount Hermon (NMH) is a coed, independent boarding school of 655 students in grades 9–12 plus a postgraduate year. You’ll find us in the heart of New England, on the banks of the Connecticut River in western Massachusetts.

NMH offers a challenging, innovative college-preparatory curriculum with extensive choices that include study-abroad programs, a social entrepreneurship course, independent study, and community-service work. Supported and guided by expert faculty and staff, students are encouraged to pursue their passions, discover new ones, and make their own unique contributions to the NMH community.

Our faculty devote an extraordinary amount of time and energy to fostering students’ accomplishment and success, both in and out of the classroom. The result is students who think critically, act with humanity, and discover within themselves a sense of purpose.

Our distinctive College-Model Academic Program (CMAP) is centered around 80-minute class periods that are longer than those in a typical high school class. So students explore each subject in greater depth and spend more time with their teachers. Students take three major courses each semester — six per year, which is one more than at schools with traditional schedules. Our average class size is 11 students. Each faculty member teaches on average only two courses a semester, allowing them to spend focused time with a small group of students.

We focus on the whole student, meeting individual needs while integrating students into a diverse, busy community. Our “Partnership of 12” initiative is a network of adults (at least a dozen every semester) who support each student every day. The network includes teachers, coaches, dorm staff, and work supervisors.

NMH has made serious commitments to multiculturalism throughout its long history. Currently, students of color make up 21 percent of the student body, and international students come from 57 countries. The school focuses extensively on racial, ethnic, socioeconomic, religious, and gender diversity in extracurricular workshops and events throughout the year. Our sustainability program empowers students to explore and protect the environment and become active citizens of a changing planet.

In short, NMH helps students develop into people who are down to earth, yet performing up to their potential. Our students are academically challenged, socially engaged, and constantly surprised by both themselves and the world.

Summary: A WELL-GROUNDED EDUCATION CAN TAKE YOU ANYWHERE.

The intense, immersive learning that NMH offers is a chance to go further. And do more. It starts in small classes with some of the most dedicated and horizon-broadening teachers you’ll ever meet. From there, things exponentially expand. Borders start to break down: between math and science, social justice and sustainability, the campus community and the world at large.

By the time you graduate, you will be more than ready to break new ground. Many of our students do—at the most selective schools, such as Brown and the University of Chicago; at big public research universities like the University of Michigan and the University of Virginia; at urban, private universities like NYU and Boston University; and at small NESCAC schools like Connecticut College and Middlebury​.

We'll encourage you to push your intellectual boundaries. Discover a love for poetry you never knew you had. Access an aptitude for quantitative thinking that has not yet been developed. Experiment with learning a new language. Explore unanticipated intellectual challenges.

And we will support your journey. As you go beyond the classroom, uncovering learning opportunities through clubs and community service, on teams, in the residence halls, and perhaps through study-abroad experiences, you’ll learn to think like and be a citizen of the world and of your own community.

Our teachers represent the heart of the NMH experience. As credentialed scholars, they’re the equal of any boarding-school faculty in the country. Dedicated and passionate, they will inspire you, nurture your interests, and motivate you to excel.

Our College Model Academic Program (CMAP) provides the richest possible educational experience and gives you a glimpse of what college will be like. By taking three major courses each semester, you’ll spend more time in class with your teachers, which allows for deeper discussion and hands-on projects that increase your understanding of the course material.

Our wide range of courses in all academic departments provides for learning experiences that can be tough, fascinating, meaningful, and, yes, downright fun. Combined with our informed, personal college counseling, an NMH education will not only prepare you for college, but will also challenge you to broaden your view of the world while refining your image of yourself.

Summary: WHAT YOU DO AT NORTHFIELD MOUNT HERMON IS UP TO YOU.

If you’re like most of our students, you’ll find that the best way to balance our intense academics is by embracing all sorts of other experiences — from joining a sports team to being in a play to running a student club to volunteering on or off campus.

It adds up to a busy schedule, but we like to take the big-picture view: It's an experience of self-discovery, happening within a incredibly dynamic community.

And don't think for a second that you're going it alone. Our Partnership of 12 ensures that at least a dozen adults — advisors, teachers, coaches, dorm parents — have got your back. They're your own personal support network, helping you figure out and work toward your individual goals. We take on community issues, too, in our bi-weekly “Student Life Seminars” — small-group conversations about health and wellness, diversity and social justice, and other important topics that rise to the surface.

Your home base and social hub — for day students and boarders alike — is the dorm. And they really do feel like home (comfy couches, TV lounges, even outdoor spaces). They're where you’ll study, relax, even find your advisor hanging out after dinner.

If that advisor turns out to be the cookie-baking type, then lucky you! But rest assured, the dining hall at NMH is something special. Whether it’s stir-fry Tuesday, Meatless Monday, or the on-demand soft-serve ice cream machine that uses NMH farm milk, the food is always delicious and inventive. It’s a good thing the dining hall is open almost all day for grazing! (View the weekly menu here.) We want you to live a fun, healthy, productive life at NMH — check out details about our weekend activities, volunteer gigs, spiritual practice, and wellness resources.

Student Life

Summary: Welcome to NMH! You've discovered one of the most exciting, distinctive boarding schools you could hope to find. I say that with some authority, having worked in boarding schools for more than a decade. When I arrived at NMH in 2002, I joined a vibrant, diverse community where individual development, community standards, and high expectations form the core of the academic and student life experience.

As dean of students, my job is to challenge and support students outside the classroom. Although classrooms provide a rich learning environment, students spend a lot of time outside the walls of our academic buildings, and we offer amazing opportunities to acquire knowledge and experience and contribute to the community through clubs, organizations, and volunteer groups.

We also have a student life curriculum that promotes self-responsibility, integrity, and moral leadership. Whether it's serving as a class officer, starting a program to raise awareness of the genocide in Darfur, or working on campus sustainability projects, students discover passions they didn't know they had and commit themselves to ideas bigger than themselves.

Many schools profess to educate the whole child. At NMH, we live and breathe our founder's motto to educate the heads, hearts, and hands of young people. I came to NMH—as perhaps you will, too—because part of the school's mission is to encourage students to live with purpose and to make a difference in the world.

Summary: ATHLETICS

WRITE DOWN YOUR GOALS ON A PIECE OF PAPER. NOW TEAR THAT UP, AND WRITE DOWN YOUR DREAMS.

That’s the kind of advice NMH student-athletes get from their coaches. Every student here is encouraged to think of athletics as yet another arena in which they can challenge themselves to dig a little deeper and aim a little higher.

And they’re more than just skilled athletes. Our students are good sports and great teammates.

NMH offers one of the broadest high school athletics programs in the country, and our College Model Academic Program (CMAP) gives students the time to participate without sacrificing their studies. They learn all kinds of valuable lessons about sportsmanship and leadership that they can apply to other areas of life.

ARTS

NMH's mission is an "education for the head, heart, and hand." But perhaps we should add the eyes, the foot, or the vocal cords to that list, because for us the arts help make us fully realized human beings. They teach us new ways to see and think about the world and allow us to communicate with our fellow human beings in ways that transcend—and sometimes critique—language, history, religion, and politics.

Art courses at NMH will nurture your appreciation and understanding of a variety of expressive media while developing your creative skills, deepening your confidence in your talent. Whether it's learning about sight reading in music, color theory in the visual arts, movement in dance, or lighting and set design in theater, when you leave NMH, you'll have the skill set to make art the rest of your life.

You'll learn the vocabulary of art and how to discuss and critique it articulately. You'll also learn the importance of crossing boundaries, collaborating with artists from other disciplines, and even incorporating ideas from science or economics into the way you think about art.

Come to campus and you'll see just how serious we are about art...and how much we celebrate it.

Summary: The college counselors at NMH are familiar with an impressively wide variety of colleges and universities. We have to be. Because of our students’ diverse backgrounds and interests, it is not enough to have stock answers. We know the Ivies and we know the truly excellent state universities. We know the big-name schools and the hidden gems. We know the conservatories and the art institutes. We know traditional liberal arts colleges and we know the schools that offer both gymnastics and Arabic studies—or whatever combination of programs you are looking for.

We also help colleges get to know NMH. Our work takes us to college campuses to connect with admission officers, coaches, and professors. We bring more than 100 college representatives to our campus each year to help them more fully understand NMH. They get our school, and that helps them get you.

The college process is complex and demanding. We understand the challenges and have lots of tools to help you manage the search process and the application itself (see links below). You and your parents can use the links on our website to track your applications. You can follow us on Twitter to get timely reminders. You can read our blog to find answers to your questions.

In the end, roughly two-thirds of NMH graduates report that they have gained admission to their first- or second-choice college. They also report that, once they are there, they are extremely well-prepared. Our graduates know how to handle demanding academics. They know how to engage in a residential community. They know how to compete and how to cooperate. Yes, NMH is a college “prep” school, but our goal is not just to get you in. We want to prepare you to succeed when you get there. And you will.

Summary: FOR MORE THAN 100 YEARS, NMH HAS BEEN MAKING THE MOST OF THE SUMMER MONTHS WITH RIGOROUS ACADEMIC PROGRAMS, INNOVATIVE TEACHING METHODS, INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION, AND BOUNTIFUL OPPORTUNITIES.

NMH Summer Session students come from all over the U.S. and the world, and they each have their own goals. For some, it’s a chance to experience a rigorous academic environment, possibly for the very first time. For others, it’s an opportunity to build on their existing foundation and get a jump on college preparation. Summer Session offerings include Middle School, College Prep, and English as a Second Language programs. Classes in all three programs are small (10–12 students) and are supported by both a master teacher and a teaching intern.

Our student population is diverse and worldly; over the years, students from 126 countries and all 50 U.S. states have attended. This ensures that everyone meets new friends from all over the world. One of the measures of our success each year is how difficult it is for so many of the students to leave at the end of the summer. They build powerful connections to our community and make lifelong friends. That's our goal: to provide a life-changing experience for each student.
