Shattuck-St. Mary's School

SSM is the best boarding school in the U.S. The teachers are very professional caring kids like a family. Meals are really good in the school too. The school had beautiful campus and lots of activities for kids. The best boarding school !

In Chinese terms, our school is unbelievably beautiful...
It's just as aesthetically pleasing and comfortable as Peking University, a top-tier institution, with its iconic 'one pagoda, one lake' (Boyata Pagoda and Weiming Lake)! Although I'm not much into sports, even seeing the large gym makes me want to try it out a bit. Not to mention several football fields, basketball courts, and golf courses... the endless green is so pleasing to the eye.
The children on campus are brimming with youthful smiles, radiating sunshine, confidence, generosity, and politeness... I love every one of them.
In my son's words, the teachers here are all very nice, understand students, respect students, and are all academically superb.
Actually, what I most want to talk about is the food here. While I still miss Chinese food from home, I find the Western food here delicious. More importantly, from a nutritional perspective: dairy, meats (steaks), vegetables, and fruits are super fresh. I remember eating blueberries, raspberries, and large blood oranges the most...
Love it, love it, love it, my great Shattuck-St. Mary's School.

In Chinese, our school is simply stunningly beautiful...
It offers the same aesthetic beauty and comfort as Peking University, a top-tier institution with its 'One Tower, One Lake' (referring to Boya Tower and Weiming Lake)!

The endless greenery is incredibly pleasing to the eye.
