School Notes
Join a community where boys are known, challenged, and
loved.Woodberry is a school for boys who want something else,
something more than they can get at home. It`s a school for boys
who love a challenge and know that a hard thing is always worth
doing. On our beautiful campus in the Virginia countryside,
boys join an enduring community, develop friendships that last a
lifetime, and gain a sense of self-confidence that is balanced by
humility. They are mentored by teachers and coaches who devote
their lives to the school and the boys who live and learn here.
Together students and teachers pursue excellence in all areas of
our community's life. Woodberry students graduate as young men
who are becoming the very best versions of themselves. They
graduate with a sense of honor and moral purpose, thanks to the
uncommon experience they`ve had here together. Together Woodberry
boys are shaping what it means to be a man in today`s ever-changing
world.
With so much uncertainty in the world today and a pandemic further confounding our lives, it's reasonable for parents to want to protect their children whenever and wherever possible? But overprotecting or bubble-wrapping? Well, that's another matter.
