Student Experience
Community, connections, and care are tenets to the student experience at Kents Hill. In a community that is purposefully small, Kents Hill crafts a co-curricular experience where students are able to be their authentic selves and make meaningful connections that will last a lifetime.
Whether it's participating in athletics or afternoon activity, hanging out with friends in the Student Center, or being a part of an event programmed by the “Weekenders,” the Student Life Team is focused on building a student experience that offers variety, comfort and fun. Kents Hill is a supportive and diverse community where students feel seen, heard, and valued.
As the Assistant Head of School for Student Life, it is my responsibility to look at the totality of your co-curricular experience. I work closely with the directors of the various components of the student life team to design programs and develop policies to make sure the student experience is affirming, growth-oriented, and responsive to the dynamic needs of our students.

Advisory Program
Students are encouraged to explore their interests, try something new, and grow from success and failure. Advisors and our advisory program serve as anchors to the community, helping students connect the dots and create an academic plan that is personalized and surrounded with support.
Athletics
More than competition, Athletics at Kents Hill is designed to help students hone skills, be accountable to themselves and others, and develop grit and the courage to face challenges head-on.
Diversity, Equity, and Belonging
Knowing that your identity is centered in the Kents Hill experience guides our inclusive practices. Diversity, equity, and belonging are inextricably linked at Kents Hill, which pushes us to acknowledge and respond to identity-based disparities facing our people and communities.
Dining
Food nurtures the soul and keeps an active Husky fueled and on the move. The Bibby and Harold Alfond Dining Commons serves as a central hub where faculty, staff, and students break bread, play, and enjoy the company of community.
Health and Wellness
Whether it concerns sleep, physical injury, emotional and mental health, or nutrition, the Health Center team is available to students to support their growth and wellbeing in mind and body.
Housing
More than a bed and a desk, campus housing provides community spaces where students rest, student, relax, and make friends.
