Darlington School
School Notes Overview:
Darlington School, an independent, coeducational, college preparatory school, serves high school-aged boarders and day students in pre-kindergarten through twelfth grade.

Darlington graduates men and women who exemplify the School's motto: Wisdom more than knowledge; service beyond self; honor above everything....
