Nestled atop scenic Skiff Mountain in Kent, Connecticut, Marvelwood is more than just a school-it's a close-knit community where students are truly seen, deeply supported, and endlessly inspired.

Here, we believe in the power of being known. Our small class sizes and 4:1 student-to-faculty ratio ensure that every student has a voice-and someone to listen.

Marvelwood academics are experiential, active, and hands-on. Our faculty thoughtfully and intentionally design a tailored curriculum that engages all students.

Students gain confidence and skills through a dynamic curriculum that evolves to meet their needs and interests-because here, learning isn't one-size-fits-all.

Whether they're researching bird migration on Skiff Mountain, building robots, growing food in the geodome, or crafting storytelling through various creative channels, students engage deeply-and grow meaningfully.
