Boys

Honesty, compassion, and respect: throughout our history, these values have united and guided our entire community. At Fessenden, we strive to develop well-rounded boys who flourish–academically, socially, and emotionally–in all that they do. We work continually to set good examples for our students, because we know they’re constantly observing and emulating those around them. Our curriculum and community is strengthened every day by a student body that comes from all over the globe, encompassing a broad range of racial, religious, cultural, and socioeconomic backgrounds, as well as family compositions. Through admissions and hiring processes, we actively seek students, faculty, and staff who represent this inclusive community.
