Make today matter.
At Loomis Chaffee our students don’t just prepare for tomorrow. They are empowered to solve real-world problems big and small —
Starting today.
It begins
in the classroom.
We don’t just teach. We nurture curiosity. Loomis Chaffee students pursue academic excellence, expand their perspectives, and push the limits of their perceived abilities.
It’s distinctly Loomis Chaffee
We don’t just help you find your passion. We embolden you to live your purpose.
Working in the Apiary
Working in the PHI
Conversations in the Norton Center
It becomes a personal journey.
Our students come from all over the world to forge paths as diverse as their backgrounds, while sharing a commitment to the best self and the common good.
No one journeys alone...
We don’t just live together. We learn from each other, support one another, laugh a lot, and have fun!
“I could feel the excitement and sense of school spirit that Loomis had when I arrived for my first time on campus. I immediately knew that Loomis was the place for me.”
Will Chien ’22
