Groton vs lawrenceville

How do you think these school’s compare? What type of kids are attracted to each? Thrive or not?While one is small and the other is large, how do you think they benefit are hindered by this difference? Thank you.

very few people have direct experience with both these schools so I don’t think you are going to get a lot of comments on this thread. maybe explain what your child is like and what you are looking for in a school and people might be able to tell you if Groton and Lawrenceville have those traits.

My son visited both schools. He attended Lville and graduated in 2018. Groton is in a more rural area, and starts at grade 8. The facilities and caliber of teaching is similar. A lot more day students at Lawrenceville (approx 30%). The Harkness style also is notable.

What exactly are you looking for?
