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.
