Bell Buckle

Southern charm

As you drive into Bell Buckle, you may feel as if you’ve stepped back into time as you pass Victorian-era homes and an old-fashioned ice cream parlor. This charming, small town and our 150-acre campus serve as the perfect backdrop for both boarding and day students to learn distraction-free.

150 Acres to Explore

Our campus spans 150 beautiful acres offering a unique setting that resembles a small college campus. Here, students enjoy the freedom to walk between classes fostering independence and preparing them for the transition to college life.

What has Webb meant to you?

“As a high school student who lived at The Webb School for four years, I found that our little community in Bell Buckle was transformational and exactly what I needed as a 14 year old. The school’s emphasis on diversity as an international community has also shaped my worldview and has opened me up to so many new ideas and cultures. Overall, Webb has truly pushed me out of my comfort zone, expanded my knowledge of other nationalities, and prepared me for the future especially when entering a new chapter of my life at college.”

What do you love about teaching at Webb?

I remember pausing one sunny Friday afternoon – last period of the day, the campus unfolding in all its spring glory outside my Big Room window, fourteen students in front of me hailing from six different countries, all engaged in heated debate about Victor Frankenstein – actually pausing and saying aloud, “Where else but Webb could this happen?”

Step up and take a
hand in the game

A Webb experience doesn’t occur on the sidelines — you’re encouraged and expected to participate. You join a club, serve on the Honor Council, or take part in a weekend kayaking trip. You sing in the choir, compete on a sports team, or write for the school newspaper. Here, you can do any of these things — or you can do them all.
