Located on 42 acres of a beautiful hilltop, Applewild's campus is rich in history and tradition, while embracing the future needs of our students with comprehensive renovations and expansions. Since our founding in 1957, sprawling mansions have become state-of-the-art classrooms, old houses have become modern dorms, and our community has come together repeatedly to support new construction that enables Applewild School to fulfill its commitment to educating a vibrant and evolving student body.

The Crocker House is the heart of Applewild’s campus and the school’s original home. Gifted by the Crocker family as part of their vision to create a school rooted in community and excellence, this historic building is where Applewild first began. Today, Crocker House continues to play a central role on campus - housing our administrative and admissions offices, 4th and 5th grade classrooms, and the health office. Blending tradition with daily activity, it remains a warm and welcoming space for students, families, and visitors alike.
HistoryThe Marshall Building is a vibrant and joyful space where Applewild’s youngest learners begin their educational journey. Home to our preschool through grade 3 classrooms, as well as our performing arts space - including music, theater, and band - it’s filled with energy, creativity, and curiosity. Designed with early childhood in mind, the Marshall Building provides a nurturing environment that supports growth, exploration, and a strong foundation in both academics and the arts. From the first notes played in band to early literacy milestones, it’s a place where a love of learning truly takes root.
Res LifeThe Stone Dining Hall is more than just a place to eat - it is a central gathering space where the Applewild community comes together daily. Students in grades K–5 and 6–9 enjoy lunch in age-based groups. Our residential life students eat and gather for breakfast and dinner each day in this space. Whether it’s a lively lunchtime conversation, a community celebration, or a fun night on campus, the Stone Dining Hall is a space where relationships grow and traditions are shared.
Res LifeThis 1910 mansion was fully renovated in 2020 to provide a warm, home-like environment for students and faculty. The Flat Rock dormitory is located adjacent to our soccer and lacrosse fields, and entrances to nature trails that run through the forest. The dormitory features two common rooms and two covered porches.
Res LifeIn 2022 we fully renovated the graceful Victorian home into a cozy, convenient dormitory for students and faculty. Student rooms feature double and triple configurations with a main-level common room, and a large covered porch for socializing.
Res LifeOur brand-new, state-of-the-art dormitory is a 17,000 sq. ft. facility designed to house 40 boarding students and six faculty families. The building’s modern design, which emphasizes safety and comfort, supports the well-being of students while encouraging collaboration and community.
