 | Scheduling a Visit
We invite you to visit The Derryfield School and understand why this is an incredible place to experience your middle and high school years! For a sneak peak at our campus, visit our online tour. Every student applying to Derryfield is required to complete an on-campus interview. We offer visits Monday through Friday, on school days, beginning in early October. If you're applying to our Middle School (grades 6, 7, or 8), you will spend a full day at Derryfield with a student host, attending classes and activities, participating in the Derryfield community, and meeting teachers and students. The day begins with an 8:00 a.m. campus tour led by one of our student tour guides. Either directly after the tour or when your class day ends, an admission counselor will interview you and meet with your parents: Interview times of 8:40 a.m. and 1:45 p.m. are available. If you're exploring Derryfield's Upper School (grades 9, 10, or 11), you may choose an appointment time of 8:00 a.m. or 1:45 p.m. The visit for Upper School families begins with a personal tour led by one of our student tour guides, followed by the student interview and parent chat. Upper School applicants will have the opportunity to visit classes on our Admitted Student day in early April.
School tours last approximately 40 minutes. Student interviews and parent chats each last approximately 30 minutes. To schedule a visit, please call the Admission Office 603.669.4524, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.
The Admission Office is located in the administrative building visible from River Road. You can reach the Admission Office by entering via the Middle School driveway across from Bicentennial Drive. Once in, go straight and part way down the hill before turning left and into the long parking lot. At the end of the lot by the building you will find reserved/visitor spaces for Admission on your left. Follow the stairs up to the front of the building; when you step inside, you will be in the lobby for the Admission Office.
