A Darlington student is made up of many things. None of which is average. We help our students develop their interests, passions and pursuits, because we believe every individual has something to contribute. We also believe that only when you're 100% you, are you 100% Darlington. 

Here at Darlington, every student’s path is different. We think that's a good thing. 

Let’s get to know Mac Cannon, a three-year boarding student from Atlanta, Ga., whose favorite thing about Darlington is the brotherhood he’s found in the dorm and through athletics.
