The Community

Our students come from Fairbanks and Brooklyn and Burma; from El Paso and Ecuador and Washington, D.C.; from Jackson, Mississippi and Honesdale, Pennsylvania.  They speak Hindi and Swedish, Hebrew and Japanese; they play the sitar and the mellophone and the Irish flute; they publish novels and build Web sites and compete in trick yo-yo events; they represent an astonishingly diverse range of histories and beliefs, opinions and experiences. That diversity is one of the defining features of the human condition—and one of the hallmarks of a Simon’s Rock education.
