Hackley School is exceptional in more than one way. It is the only boarding school that performs consistently high on a number of criteria for private school success, beginning with its annual enrollment numbers. The way the school deploys its co-ed day plus 5-day boarding school structure is impressive, maintaining a 7:1 student-teacher ratio with 87% advanced degree teachers, and a range of non-scholastic athletic and other activities on offer.

Even though its current minority ratio is 22%, the school was founded in 1899 by Mrs. Francis Hackley with a strong focus on welcoming students from various ethnic, cultural, and religious backgrounds. The school recently launched its health and wellness center, receiving awards attention from regional engineering and architectural bodies. The center has allowed the school to expand its para-scholastic roster of offerings to even more choices.

The cake of distinction, however, goes to the strong academic success of this school. Its Class of 2022 obtained an average of 1370 in SAT. The school offers 14 Advanced Preparation courses to its students on track to college.
