A ROUNDED EDUCATION,

A GROUNDED EXPERIENCE.

Welcome to Bancroft School's Admission Office Web Page. We are pleased to be of service to you as you consider enrolling your child in Central Massachusetts' premier independent college-preparatory day school for Pre-Kindergarten through Grade 12.

Our nearly 500 students commute from more than 50 communities, from as nearby as our own Indian Lake neighborhood to as far away as Ashburnham, Framingham, and Brimfield. They pursue their many academic, extracurricular, and athletic interests on a modern campus outfitted with state-of-the-art computer labs, gymnasiums, dining hall, theater, library, art and music studios, science labs, and much more. Most importantly, our students learn from a dynamic faculty that thrives on challenging and supporting motivated students.

Over 100 years ago, Bancroft School was founded by a group of Worcester parents who wanted to give their sons and daughters the advantages of a rigorous academic experience. For the name of their new school, they turned to one of Worcester's most illustrious native sons - George Bancroft, a man of enormous intellectual accomplishments.

Since those early years on Elm and Sever Streets, Bancroft has remained true to its founders' goal: to provide a demanding academic program in a spirited and supportive atmosphere.

We look forward to meeting you as you take your first steps to Bancroft!
