Watkinson has had another record-breaking year! For the third year in a row, 94% of Watkinson families said YES to returning this year. These are our highest retention rates in 40 years. Not only is this historic for Watkinson, but this also far surpasses the current national trend (88% according to the National Association of Independent Schools). Our high retention rate signifies the pride and satisfaction our parents and students have about their Watkinson experiences. Come see for yourself at our next info session. We can't wait to meet you! You can introduce yourself to Watkinson by attending an info session and/or taking a private tour. An Info Session is an excellent way to get a sense of what Watkinson has to offer. Info sessions include: a welcome with Head of School Teri Schrader and Director of Admission John Crosson, hear from faculty and administrators, a Q & A panel with current students, and a campus tour (in-person only).
