Middle and Secondary School Placements

Many students thrive with the small classes, personal attention, engaging extracurricular activities and structured schedule available at boarding schools.  Sometimes no local school quite fits the individual needs of a student. Boarding schools vary widely, from the most academically rigorous institutions to those that specialize in previously discouraged learners.

Matching the student to the proper school is vitally important. In the right setting, adolescents develop to their fullest potential - pursuing a variety of activities and special interests, forming inspiring connections with their teachers, and contributing to their school community. Students emerge as mature, self-disciplined, and independent learners.

For families who have not yet decided between day and boarding options, Christie Woodfin collaborates with other educational consultants who specialize in day placements, so that these families can have the benefit of two specialists in their individual realms.

Twenty five to thirty percent of Christie Woodfin's professional time is spent visiting schools and attending professional meetings to stay abreast of developments on campuses nationwide.

It is Christie Woodfin's pleasure to guide students to schools which match their intellectual capacity, individual talents and personal style.
