The
Hotchkiss School is an independent boarding school located in
Lakeville, Connecticut. Founded in
1891. Hotchkiss students are from all over but the most common areas are fairfield county, westchester (rye part of it of course), and new york city. They have a work hard play hard outlook. classes are monday-saturday but students more than make up for it when they leave campus saturday nights. drugs and alcohol are forbidden so they are only used a little and coke is popular because it's harder to catch students
blowing lines than smoking weed and its harder to tell if a student is coked up than drunk. boys must wear coat and tie to class every day while girls wear skirts and tops. ties are all hermes and vineyard vines. the girls wear lilly pulitzer, ralph lauren, and theory. the biggest sports are football, fieldhockey, hockey, squash, and biggest of all lacrosse. most students go to ivy league or top 20 schools or small new england liberal arts schools. . schools that
hotchkiss has sent the most students to in the last few years are georgetown, harvard, duke, cornell,
bowdoin, brown, princeton,
middlebury, yale, upenn, uva and trinity college. a lot of kids are recruited for sports. vineyard vines recently designed a pattern for both totes and ties in their custom collection for Hotchkiss. other similar schools are deerfield, taft, groton, choate,
loomis chafee, etc.
