About Rock Point School

Rock Point School is an intentionally small, supportive, all-gender boarding school for high school students who are seeking an inclusive alternative to traditional school settings. Rock Point is a place where young people who have found themselves off-track academically, socially, and personally are seen for who they are, take healthy risks, discover their passion, grow, and find success.
