15. Episcopal High School – $60,900 Yearly Tuition
We wouldn’t be shocked if someone mistook Episcopal High School for a college campus after seeing it. Virginia’s first high school covers 130 beautifully landscaped acres and has elegant brick buildings and pathways. In the school’s cutting-edge classrooms, enormous gyms, squash courts, or on-campus chapel, pupils can be found.
What this institution offers outside of its campus is also exceptionally unique. Every student participates in the “Washington Program,” which takes them to neighboring Washington, D.C., and requires all seniors to complete an on-site internship there.
14. Salisbury School – $61,000 Yearly Tuition
Anyone who wants to attend Salisbury School in Connecticut will have to pay $61,000 a year to do so. The private, all-boys, 725-acre institution has a gymnasium that is 110,000 square feet in size. Isn’t it not enough? How about a hockey rink the size of the Olympic Stadium? Additionally, there are two basketball courts, eight squash courts, a wrestling room, two gyms, and a 500-seat turf field arena.
The academic curriculum of Salisbury School covers a wide range of topics, from digital media and entrepreneurship studies to boat building and the design and construction of tiny houses. Students visit the dining hall after a long day of classes to take advantage of Milkshake Mondays, farm-to-table alternatives, a “Asian Pho bar,” cookouts, and themed dinners.
13. The Storm King School – $61,700 Yearly Tuition
The Storm King School is one of New York’s oldest boarding schools, and has been recognized inside the top 50 boarding schools in North America. And any of the 195 fortunate students who are allowed to attend get to sit in classes with, on average, only eight other people.
The 55-acre campus was characterized as “big and cozy at the same time” by a student at the institution. We are unsure of which properties have tennis courts, fencing teams, or modest “cottage”-style dormitories, though. Additionally, the school employs private chefs who prepare food for the noodle bar, sandwich bar, pasta bar, and vegetable bar.
12. St. Paul’s School – $62,000 Yearly Tuition
In Concord, New Hampshire, a $62,000 boarding school promotes itself as “extremely selective” in terms of the high school students who are allowed to enroll and live on the 2,000-acre campus. As one of the eight most prestigious private schools in the nation, St. Paul’s School is a member of the Eight Schools Association.
Additionally, this institution places equal value on academics and athletics. Not only must everyone of the 500+ students participate in at least one athletic team, but the school is also the location of the first hockey match played in the United States. Another impressive feature is that the first squash court ever constructed in the nation was situated on the property.
11. Trinity-Pawling School – $62,000 Yearly Tuition
The all-boys boarding school Trinity-Pawling School, located 60 miles north of New York City, prides itself on being “where lads find their greatness.” However, success also has a hefty $62,000 annual tuition cost. The 400-seat theater, greenhouse, modern arts center, and several sporting fields are all available to the 300 students for that fee.
Students at Trinity-Pawling School must also follow a rigid dress code. The “Blues and Grays” uniform for males consists of a Trinity-Pawling navy blue blazer, gray dress slacks, a white button-down shirt, and a blue and gold tie, typically in the shape of a bow tie.
