Each girl who studies at The Chapin School acquires not only an advanced command of the sciences, humanities, social studies and arts, but also a strong sense of her own values, integrity, and potential to shape the world. Chapin students build a clear understanding of complex issues by thinking independently, working with others, and cultivating qualities such as hard work, compassion and organization. The school's innovative approach helps them to strive simultaneously toward personal excellence and the public good.

Chapin's rigorous curriculum fosters each girl's total development, from her academic progress to her social and emotional health. Through liberal arts courses, participation in athletics and clubs, exposure to the fine and performing arts, and fun social activities, Chapin challenges the minds of girls and young women while providing the foundation for a lifetime of curiosity, creativity and intellectual achievement.

Above all, Chapin is known for its spirit of togetherness and community, which characterizes every student interaction from Kindergarten through Class 12 and also extends to the more than 8,000 parents, alumnae, grandparents and others who comprise the Chapin family. The school benefits greatly from the contributions of this diverse, dedicated and actively involved group.
