Welcome to the CH-CH Virtual Admissions Experience

We're happy you're here, and excited for you to learn more about CH-CH! We hope these virtual admissions experiences will show you why we are known for being a school with empathy at the core of community and teaching philosophy. 

This Virtual Admissions Experience is the result of over 40 members of the CH-CH community coming together to give you an authentic look at academics, support, college counseling, boarding, student life, arts, athletics and much, much more.

Our Admissions team is available to chat at the bottom of the page and we look forward to answering any questions you have.
CH-CH students, teachers, and administrators give you an inside look at what it truly means to teach the way students learn. Topics range from academics designed to engage, our signature Skills and Academic Support Program, and our unique approach to College Counseling. There's a lot to learn, so let's get started!

Student Panel Webinar



The single best way to learn about CH-CH… is from the students! This webinar will be driven exclusively by CH-CH students! From hearing their stories to answering questions from viewers, this will be one of the most informative and fun ways to learn more about the experience of attending CH-CH.

Academics at CH-CH: Our Approach


CH-CH provides many challenging programs in the classroom and beyond. The academic program is designed to support and challenge each student and to acknowledge that students learn in a variety of ways. Watch our academic department chairs provide an in-depth explanation of the underlying goals of the curriculum that equips students with opportunities to develop confidence as learners and achieve a great degree of independence.

College Counseling
At CH-CH, students learn and build the habits of a successful college student from day one. In order to get students prepared and excited about going to college, we believe they should be connected to, and develop ownership in their experiences as learners. Watch our Director of College Counseling, Brooke Fincke, outline the entire college process, the importance of finding the best fit school, and how it all begins when students understand themselves as learners.

Our Home: CH-CH's Campus



CH-CH's campus spans 42 acres in Waltham, Massachusetts. You'll often see teachers taking their classes outside, whether they're using the pond in the center of campus for a lab in biology or finding a quiet spot in the shade for a 9th grade class to discuss The Odyssey. With all of this serene green space, we often forget that Boston is only ten miles away.
On weekends, students attend activities in Boston to see a play, attend a sporting event, or simply walk its historic streets. They return to CH-CH’s homelike environment, where it's easy to concentrate and there's plenty of space to learn and grow.
