Pertinent to the OP, they are looking for a prep school with emphasis on having a strong boys soccer program among other things.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostIt is not that it is weird to make it a high priority but rather that you tend to have extremes where some schools will go full bore for athletics and others won't. Some schools will go all in on specific sports and could care less about others. Its weird because there really isn't a rhyme or reason behind it.

Worcester Academy has an excellent class A team. Nice campus in Worcester Hugh surrounding neighborhood not so great. 5 or 7 day boarding.
Tabor Academy in Marion has a gorgeous Oceanside campus with athletic facilities that are better than most small colleges. Middle of the road A team but looking to improve.
Some other gorgeous schools in CT with good to great A or B soccer programs are Westminster, Loomis-Chaffee, Pomfret. Visit any of those campuses and you won't be disappointed. Some prep schools have the classic ivy walled buildings. Others are more modern. Also remember to find out if the school is all boys or coed.

Lawrence is by far the weakest academic school in the ISL. Most of their kids couldn't get into other schools.
