We are where we live. More than just a school, Knox is a community of individuals, no two of whom are alike, and everything from Knox's housing arrangements to student activities is designed to accommodate and support the intimacy and diversity of that community.

Students at Knox do all the things that people in a community do. They live together, they eat together, they join bands, churches, sports teams and political parties. They also make a lot of friends, have a lot of fun, and learn a lot in the process. But most of all, they feel like they belong, like they're at home. As you click through the links on the left, imagine yourself trading stories with a roommate from another country, playing goalie for the water polo team, or playing Horatio in an avant-garde production of Hamlet (Horatio gets all the best lines in the avant-garde version). In other words, imagine making yourself at home.
