Whether engaging in lively discussions around a Harkness table in humanities, problem-solving in math, learning a modern language in immersion classrooms, or conducting hands-on experiments in science, students are inspired, challenged, and encouraged to grow and explore their passions and strengths.
Empowered for College and Beyond
As students progress through the Upper School, they have the opportunity to explore a wide range of subjects in depth. As a college-preparatory school, Hackley proudly offers a robust liberal arts education that empowers students to discover their interests and prepare for the next steps in their academic journeys. Our graduates return to campus often to share how well Hackley equipped them to meet the challenges ahead with confidence.
A Culture of Respect and Support
The Hackley Community values meaningful connections that form between students and teachers. Our passionate educators, who bring both expertise and enthusiasm to their subjects, create a culture where students feel supported and empowered. It’s common for students to express gratitude to teachers at the end of each class, reflecting the mutual respect that defines the Hackley experience. Teachers set high academic standards, while providing unwavering encouragement and emphasizing that seeking help is a sign of strength, not an admission of weakness.
