The Dining Hall

Deerfield Dining HallThe Academy believes that mealtimes provide an important opportunity for strengthening friendships, exchanging ideas and enhancing community spirit. For this reason, family-style meals are served seven times per week. Boarding students are required to attend all "sit-down" meals. Day students must attend all sit-down lunches and are encouraged to stay for the evening meal.

Students are assigned to a different faculty member's table every three weeks, which not only allows people to become better acquainted with those from different classes and dormitories, but also lets them get to know faculty members in a relaxed situation. All students take turns waiting on tables and performing kitchen duties.

The Dining Hall offers vegetarian options for every meal, and our Director of Dining Services is available to discuss any specific dietary needs you might have.
