[edit] Facilities

The campus was designed by noted landscape designer Frederick Law Olmsted in 1894. The architect Ernest Flagg (1857-1946) designed the Romanesque stone Clark Memorial Chapel in 1907, and the distinctive brick Georgian school house, four dormitories, infirmary & gymnasium from 1907 to 1917. In October 2003, Pomfret School opened the doors of its new athletic center and student union. The athletic center was donated by Mr. and Mrs. Jon Corzine, parents of a recent Pomfret graduate. Mr. Corzine is the current Governor of New Jersey. Other new facilities include the Jahn Rink, designed by world-renowned architect Helmut Jahn, the parent of a recent graduate; the Blodgett Boathouse and Blodgett Tennis Center, both donated by Mark Blodgett '75; a new state-of-the-art observatory; and the Lasell Alumni House.
