The Webb School, guided by our core values of honor, integrity and civility, motivates young men and women to fulfill their promise. Our community of 423 male and female students is small by design, creating lifelong connections while fostering greater involvement and individual growth. These students have diverse backgrounds, personalities and interests, truly bringing the world to Webb. And with a legacy of service and graduates active in the global marketing place, Webb impacts the world.
To put it simply, it’s cool to be smart at Webb. We develop confident, creative, and critical thinkers one question at a time. Webb offers 16 AP courses along with other very challenging classes. But we truly break the mold with our public performance program, which fosters our students’ emerging voices while developing their academic passions.
Webb’s 150-acre campus is located 50 minutes south of Nashville, Tennessee in historic Bell Buckle. This rural and intimate setting promotes a focus on personal values and intellectual growth – creating a refuge from societal pressures and distractions.
Most importantly, respect goes both ways at Webb. Honor, integrity, and civility are at our core and we hold the line to those ideals. This has been a hallmark of Webb throughout our 154 year history, and our students take pride in upholding this tradition.
All of these unique qualities create what we call The Character of Home. We invite you to explore our Web site to learn more about Webb.
