A School Built for Boys

Preparing boys for their future since 1889

Since our founding in 1889, thousands of families have trusted Woodberry Forest School with their boys.


At the heart of the Woodberry experience is our shared honor system. It is the lens through which we view the world, and it’s the defining mark of a Woodberry education. Integrity, adaptability, accountability, curiosity, empathy—these are not abstract notions here. Woodberry students enter a community dedicated to preserving and nurturing this pursuit, where everyone feels safe, supported, and treated with respect.
