Hockaday is absolutely fantastic. I began there in 5th grade and the girls took me in so easily. Anybody who does not Hockaday is simply a different type of person.

My daughter attends Hockaday in pre-k and so far, we have been very impressed with the teachers and the schools. The girls learn about character and ethics at an early age.

AWESOME!!!!!! It's fun and interesting and it gives us the chance to have an excellent future of our choice, weather it's going to Harvard (my big sis goes there and she went to Hockaday) or Stanford (that's where my mom went, she also went to Hockaday) A giant thumbs-up with a giant smile included!!!

I have a high school daughter who has attended other schools. Hockaday's rigorous academic environment is outstanding. there is a strong emphasis on ethical behavior and honesty. Outstanding athletic teams. Entrance into top tier universities is higher than average among the top prep schools in America.

Excellent school - have 2 girls there. Love the teachers, all-girls environment, uniforms, leadership is fantastic - stresses academic performance, social interaction, strong secular moral values. Hockaday has a great music program which includes everything from piano to strings and composition/theory. ...  Read more
