Church Farm School exists to provide real and meaningful opportunities to motivated, hard-working boys from many places in our region and around the world, especially those who desire an excellent education. For 100 years, this work has been made possible through the support of a wonderful philanthropic community choosing to provide uncommon educational access to those students who would not typically enjoy such a life-changing experience.

Our tagline, Inspiring Boys – Fulfilling Dreams, speaks of our desire to find the most inspirational boys from all races, creeds, cultures and economic circumstances and, in turn, inspire them to make their dreams a reality through a rigorous academic curriculum, engaging campus life, highly competitive athletic program and service to the greater community. We seek to prepare each boy in mind, body and spirit for life in some of the country’s best colleges and universities with most receiving significant scholarships, the kind we provide at CFS.

If you are ready to commit yourself to your future, to reaching for and fulfilling your educational dreams—ones that will lead you to a bright career and responsible citizenship—we want you to contact our admission office for an interview and campus visit. There is nothing like being on campus to experience the rich and unique diversity of our entire community and the wonders that are experienced in our daily work.

And to all who are visiting this site, whether a prospective or current student and family member, alumnus or friend, we trust you will find well reflected in all that is presented and communicated through these images both the information you are seeking and an enduring dedication to our core values: integrity, responsibility, respect, and brotherhood.

The Church Farm School prepares a diverse group of boys in grades 9-12 with academic ability and good character to lead productive and fulfilling lives by making a college preparatory education financially accessible. Those we serve:

  • We seek boys for whom a Church Farm School education represents an extraordinary opportunity.
  • We offer opportunities to boys of ability and promise who are working to achieve their full potential.
  • We intentionally provide significant financial aid in order to welcome students from a wide range of economic circumstances.
  • We embrace our unique ethnic, geographic and socio-economic diversity.
  • We serve boys from a variety of family situations, particularly those with a single parent.

Every boy at Church Farm School is chosen for his potential to grow as an impactful leader. Our community is very diverse, with students coming from across the country and around the world. Students gain the type of cultural competence needed to be successful adults; our young men bring the world to Church Farm School. Central to Church Farm School is the boarding experience. Our residential character extends far beyond our 10 cottages and 150-acre campus. It influences every aspect of life here, fostering common experiences in our dorms, on our athletic fields, and in our chapel services. Our teachers reside with their families on or near campus and participate fully in the life of the school—and the lives of our boys.

The school’s 75 exceptional faculty and staff members guide 200 students through a rigorous curriculum that fosters outstanding academic development, with a strong focus on STEM and ethical leadership. Students also experience a full program of athletic, artistic and spiritual activities that create a caring, close community. Church Farm School engages its students through a curriculum that accentuates academic excellence, values and character and service leadership. Our class size averages 10 students, with a student-to-faculty ratio of 11-to-one.

Church Farm School students are going on to do great things with their lives. For the past seven years, 100% of our graduates have been accepted into leading four-year colleges and universities. We hope you will take a closer look at Church Farm School.

In complement to our core curriculum, we offer honors and advanced placement offerings, as well as a multitude of academic support resources to make you as successful in your academic endeavors as possible. We aim to educate the whole person at Church Farm School, and we believe our academic program, coupled with our top-notch athletic offerings, community service program and varied student activities and clubs, provide a unique and engaging “work-life” balance that is what our students will find in the real world. Finally, whether you are a day student or a boarder, our staff is here to make Church Farm School your home away from home. We look forward to you experiencing all that the school has to offer.

My son has had an incredible experience at Church Farm School in Chester. The American curriculum has provided him with a well-rounded education, and the teachers have been incredibly helpful and supportive. I've seen a remarkable progress in his academics and personal growth.
