I went to Midland, my daughter graduated from there,an and my son is a senior. The biggest noticeable difference? A Midland grad emerges as a young adult, not dependent on mom and dad for every day life decisions. Well worth it, and amazingly affordable.

Midland School is a school like no other. Experiential education meets challenging academics and a deep commitment to a place-based education defines much of Midland's curricula and programming. But, for us, it was the people that made Midland a truly special experience for our daughter. I highly recommend Midland as a college prep, boarding school.

They assur...

Midland provides the most incredible academic and community experience of any school I've come across. The intentional stance on technology use blends beautifully with the rustic, nature-focused campus.
