Established in 1926, The Gow School is an internationally renowned, college-preparatory, boarding school that specializes in the education of young men who have dyslexia or similar language-based learning differences. We offer small classes and individual attention within a supportive community. The rural campus has 100 acres with three playing fields; three outdoor tennis courts; and 23 buildings including a 49,600 square foot fieldhouse/gymnasium and a new (2009) dining hall. Gow continues to place virtually all of our graduates in college or university.
