Where will your journey take you?
Your journey as a Raven differs from any other high school or boarding school experience. Long a fertile ground for inspiration and transformation, here, ideas take shape and grow into impactful endeavors that resonate worldwide. This is where you grow into the person you were meant to be – intellectually, morally, physically and spiritually.
This is where your future begins.
If you ask any Raven why they chose to spend their high school years at the Abbey, you will likely hear a recurring answer: "Because of the people I met when I visited.” That's because, at Portsmouth Abbey, we value living in a community. We support each other through triumphs and challenges. Arriving as strangers, we quickly develop friendships and build cherished memories that last long after graduation.
This is a community of intent. Crafted not only by the Mission of the School but also by focusing on the health, safety, and well-being of everyone in the community. As Saint Benedict sought in his Rule for Monks, the Abbey community seeks a life of spiritual growth centered on intellectual development balanced with physical and social activities, recreation, and rest. To this end, oriented by the Catholic faith, we offer a comprehensive and structured academic, athletic and residential life program motivated by the belief that every person is deserving of dignity and respect.
