Miss Porter's School Reviews

 
I attended Miss Porter's and I have to say without a doubt it was the most important educational experience of my life. At a critical time in a young girl's life, MPS helps to guide, grow and develop its students in a way that strengthens a girl for the challenges that lie ahead throughout her life. I would highly recommend it to any parents and girls who are considering MPS.

This is an outstanding school with caring faculty. My daughter just finished her first year in college and was extremely well prepared. My second daughter will begin this year and we are very excited about the opportunities she will have. Porter's is extremely rigorous and students can focus on learning rather than the hyper AP culture of our larger and excellent suburban schools in CT. Definitely worth a look for any girl that wants more. This has truly been an outstanding experience as a parent watching our daughter and her friends from all over the world.

My daughter just completed her first year at MPS and I struggle financially to make it happen. I was almost looking for a reason to see things not work out. But it is the best school for a young woman anywhere! She is constantly challenged and absolutely loves it. I do think they push them too hard, more like a college than a high school. No doubt, if you can afford it...this is it!

The experience Miss Porter's provided my daughter and I with was second to none. It is a fantastic enviorment for development and growth, she was truly able to become a praised academic, as well as, herself. I have never made a better or more worth while investment.

This is a great school to send your daughters from the start of their high school career, it is an outstanding school with great education and athletic opportunities too.

The best decision I ever made was to send my daughter to Miss Porter's over Andover and Deerfield. Now at an Ivy she feels her education was second to none and she often feels better academically educated than her friends from Andover and Exeter. For my daughter, after growing up on the upper east side, Miss Porter's was a breathe of fresh air. Many students were from prominent families but there was not the same catty social climbing experienced at other schools. She was able to pursue her passion for pottery and japenese in classes with 2 students. My daughter stands out amongst her peers as driven and grounded. She would not be the wonderful woman she is without Miss Porter's.

My daughter attends MPS. It calls itself an intensive learning environment that allows girls to concentrate more without boys. The result, however, is quite the opposite: girls become catty and snobbish and scream whenever they see boys. My daughter now hates going to an all-girls school. The academic aspect is no better: my daughter is not at all challenged by her courses, nor is she compelled to work harder. MPS cites 'traditions' as a very important part of their community, but they never tell you exactly what the traditions are.

I have had 2 daughters attend and graduate from MPS and all I can say is that it was a fantastic experience for my girls and our family.
