Where graduates go, as the school itself publishes it. Salem Academy publishes where its graduates go (Class of 2023): 8 colleges, including Boston College, University of Michigan, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Wake Forest University.
Worth asking admissions: the school profile. Reach doesn't yet show this school's SAT/ACT or AP results. Every private school produces a counselor's "school profile" for colleges, and most post it online — ask admissions for it. How a school answers says as much as the numbers.

Composed from this page's data — every claim is backed by a number in the sections below.
