Overview
Chadwick's current enrollment is slightly larger than 800. Chadwick is divided into three sections: the Village School (K-Grade 6), the Middle School (Grades 7-8), and the Upper School (Grades 9-12).
Athletics
The Chadwick Upper School is involved in athletics through the CIF Southern Section as a member of the Prep League. With 37 teams, Chadwick competes in 23 separate boys' and girls' sports. On average, almost 90% of Chadwick Upper School students participate in at least one sport each year. Historically, Chadwick's two main rivals have been Pasadena Poly and Flintridge Prep. The Gold Cup, one of California's oldest rivalry trophies, changes hands each year in the annual Flintridge-Chadwick football game. After a decade-long losing streak, Chadwick won the Gold Cup on a last-second score by current Duke wide receiver James Brooks.
