Welcome to the Kents Hill community!

It is a great pleasure to welcome you to our school community. Many exciting things are happening at Kents Hill, and I hope you will take this opportunity to explore some of them on our website.

What you will see, as you get to know us, are many reasons to choose Kents Hill School. I would like to highlight 4 of them here:

1. We are committed to providing our students a superb academic preparation for college and a strong grounding in lifelong ethical values.

2. We are a supportive and friendly school, with a strong and abiding sense of community.

3. We care deeply about our students as individuals, and we work hard to instill in every student the confidence to become a leader and to fulfill his/her potential.

4. We believe strongly that "one man or woman of principle can make a difference."

We are small enough to know each of our students well, yet large enough to offer a comprehensive, college preparatory curriculum and a full range of competitive sports and extracurricular activities. We are located on a beautiful 400-acre campus in Maine, surrounded by lakes, forest and farmland, and near the mountains to the north and the ocean to the east. We are also a diverse community, with students from over 50 Maine communities, 20+ states and 15+ different countries.

I invite you to visit Kents Hill soon, to meet with the Admissions staff, to tour the campus, to visit some classes and to join us at Morning Meeting. I particularly look forward to welcoming you personally to our campus.

Sincerely,

Rist Bonnefond
Headmaster
