Welcome from Admissions

Guided by our motto, “Our Best Today, Better Tomorrow,” Dexter Southfield fosters creativity, innovation, and the pursuit of excellence.

Dexter Southfield is among the top educational opportunities in the greater Boston area. Our recent graduates—scholars, artists, scientists, programmers, and athletes—have been admitted to many of the nation’s most competitive colleges and universities. We are proud to nurture students from their earliest years through graduation, all on one campus where strong relationships thrive and opportunities abound. 

Dexter Southfield is a place where curiosity, character, and leadership are more than ideals; they are skills practiced by students, faculty, and staff alike. Whether in the classroom, on the playing fields, on the stage, or through service, our students are encouraged to take risks, discover new passions, and grow in confidence. From our youngest learners to our most accomplished seniors, we encourage every individual to be one's best. 

Please take time to experience our School's community for yourself. I encourage you to visit campus, meet our exceptional teachers, and see firsthand the energy and enthusiasm that make Dexter Southfield such a special place. We are committed to partnering with families to find a school where students are challenged, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential.

We look forward to guiding you through the admissions process.
