Student
life at Buxton reflects a sense of family and community.
Most students attending Buxton live on campus. Girls live
in the Main House and the Gate House; the Barn is home to
the boys. Roommates are assigned at the beginning of the
school year. Three times a year thereafter, students choose
new roommates and change rooms. Room Change is an exciting
time for all. This tradition gives students the experience
of living closely with many different people while at Buxton.
Faculty
members live either in apartments in the dorms or with their
families in houses on campus and are always available to
students.
Meals
are prepared by a chef trained at the New England Culinary
Institute and his staff. Lunch and dinner are family style,
served in the dining room of the Main House. Faculty members
have assigned tables and students choose where they want
to sit. Student waiters serve, bus, and clean their designated
tables.
Although
the dress is casual much of the time, Sunday nights, the
All-School Trip, and other
special occasions do require more formal attire such as
jacket and tie for the boys and dresses or slacks for the
girls.
Health
services are provided by the Williamstown Medical Associates.
A nurse is present on campus every weekday morning to check
on students who are ill, provide medicines, and help schedule
doctors' appointments. An annual physical exam is required.
