About
More than a century has passed since Mr. Taft founded our school. While the world and the school have changed dramatically, his fundamental values endure: work hard, without regard for public acclaim; develop all your talents: academic, artistic, and athletic; and most importantly, give of yourself to others.
Admission
“Our Admissions Committee seeks prospective students who will, in equal measure, embrace all that it means to be a Taft student—the rigors, the fun, the commitments, and the rewards."Peter Frew '75, Director of Admission
Academics
Our students develop the skills, knowledge, and habits of mind to be lifelong learners, critical thinkers, and responsible global citizens.
Arts
Success in the Arts is bred of self-confidence; a fearlessness or joy in the process, more than the outcome. Taft School Portrait of an Arts Graduate
Athletics
In building one of the most successful athletic programs in New England, Taft coaches promote fair play, respect for opponents, a love of the game, competitive spirit, and team loyalty.
Campus Life
Taft is a school with heart. Our sense of community is strong, and extends to every aspect of campus life.
Giving
Taft has been built, brick by brick, through the collective generosity of generations of alumni, parents, families, and friends.
Living Our Motto
Not to be served but to serve is more than our motto, it is the underlying principle that shapes our perspectives and guides our actions every day.

Congratulations to lacrosse team captain Thomas Ricciardelli '22, who was among the first eleven players selected to compete in the 17th-annual Under Armour All-America Lacrosse Game.

"This is huge news for Thomas and for Taft," says Head Lacrosse Coach Nic Bell. "This is the highest individual honor that a high school player can achieve at this point in their career."

Thomas was selected in the first of four waves of 11 players. The remaining three waves will be announced over the next two months. Players will be divided into North and South teams subsequent to the release of the final wave. The game will be played July 30 at Johns Hopkins University, and aired live on ESPNU at 8:00 pm.

Congratulations, Thomas, and GO BIG RED!
