Testimonials
‘I really enjoyed my time at Olney Friends School. It gave me a sense of independence but also had good teachers watching over me. The dorm life was fun. I liked the various events in campus. I liked the country location and enjoyed hiking and biking. The current farm with goats and chickens is amazing.’
