Being a boarding student at Ross is an exciting experience that introduces students to other cultures, prepares young people for the increased independence and responsibility of college academics, and sparks lifelong friendships.
Ross School stands out for its unique educational environment, combining a picturesque setting, family-oriented community, and an authentic commitment to diversity, making it a special and secure place for students to thrive.
The Hamptons offers a safe, clean more tranquil environment.
Ross School enjoys an idyllic setting where stunning beaches and natural beauty abound. The East End of Long Island offers a welcoming community, while being conveniently close to the vibrant culture of New York City. With its proximity to the ocean and Peconic Bay, students have unparalleled opportunities for coastal activities and exploration of marine life. Additionally, they can enrich their education by visiting cultural institutions such as The Parrish Art Museum and The LongHouse Reserve, further immersing themselves in the rich tapestry of the region's art and nature.
While many residential schools rely upon the use of dormitories to house their students, Ross School provides students with the warmth of a family environment.
Sharing single-family residences in a cluster of homes near Sag Harbor, students and house parents—adults living in the houses who serve as supervisory figures, confidantes, and much more—work together to create a homelike atmosphere in the boarding houses.
Devoted house parents are the backbone of the Residential Life program.
Many of our students live thousands of miles from their families, and it’s comforting for their parents to know that their children are in the care of people who will ask how their day went or celebrate their birthday. The family-style experience Ross provides is one of our most distinctive features.
