Why the Highlands fits Woodberry Forest School
Woodberry boys come from families investing heavily in formation and outcomes. The Highlands gives them objective cognitive data to bring into the college-counseling conversation and the major-selection conversation that follows.
How we engage
Most Woodberry Forest School families begin with an individual Highlands Ability Battery — a 3.5-hour online assessment plus a two-hour debrief — for one student. Some families come back for a second child two years later. Schools sometimes engage us at the institutional level for cohort work.
- Individual Highlands work for fifth- and sixth-formers
- Athletic team chemistry engagements
- Senior-class cohort engagements
