LONG TRAIL SCHOOL Founded 1975

The Long Trail Student

Long Trail students defy profiling. They excel in math, have main parts in drama productions, win state level awards for soccer, join the Debate Team....

There is only one common denominator Long Trail students share. When pushed, challenged and encouraged, they take an idea and their talent and run with it.

Long Trail School provides a safe, encouraging environment for students to explore their ambitions in and outside the classroom. Faculty, with its diverse professional and personal interests, provides resources to guide and challenge students.

The student-faculty collaboration results in young adults who are hardworking, focused and well-equipped to meet challenges both in college and their adult life.

As one student puts it, "If you want to do it, Long Trail will find a way to make it happen, and teach you how to make it happen."
