Student Life

A carnival-like atmosphere takes over the School each Halloween as students, teachers, and administrators turn out in costume for a parade and contest.

Before they leave the Middle School, 9th graders select their Class Colors and Song. They carry the colors with them through Upper School and sing their song at various school celebrations.

To celebrate their completion of Middle School, 9th graders are given a Marlborough School pin at a special ceremony at the end of the year.

10th Grade students create and present a banner embodying the best characteristics of their class. The banner moves with them and is then proudly displayed in the Senior Lounge when the class becomes seniors.

Marking the passage into their final school year, this beautiful and long-standing school tradition for the junior class utilizes the imagery of the class ring to emphasize the unity and cohesive journey of the class through their time at Marlborough. The ceremony and design of Marlborough's school ring dates back to the early 1920s. 

Each senior class selects and presents a class mascot--a fictional figure that symbolizes the identity of the graduates. Recent mascots have included Madeline, the Pink Panther, Wonder Woman, Curious George, the Lorax, and Vector.
