Student Body and Conduct
For 2011/12 Kimball Union enrolled 315 students, 55% boys, 45% girls. One third of the student body are day students. Although the majority of students are from New England, students come to the academy from twenty-five states and 16 different countries.
Kimball Union Academy has an Honor Code intended to reflect its core values, support its mission, and guide the behavior of its community. In establishing its policies on conduct, Kimball Union considers it a priority to teach its students concern for others. Violations of major school rules are reviewed individually by a disciplinary committee of peers and faculty members, which makes a recommendation to the Head of School. Violations of minor rules are normally handled by a faculty member.
