Kent Place’s theme for 2023–2024 is “Deepening Connections in Community,” expanding on an aspect of the KPS experience that has long set the school apart — the focus on stepping outside the classroom to strengthen bonds at the start of the academic year.
Fencing
The Dragon fencing team competes at the varsity level in the New Jersey Independent Fencing Association (NJIFA) league and as part of the New Jersey Interscholastic Fencing Association (NJIFA) and the New Jersey Independent School Athletic Association (NJISAA) prep A league.
On the team are both experienced and novice fencers — all of whom enjoy learning and honing their skills with epée, foil, and saber weaponry. Our fencers have had tremendous success locally, nationally, and internationally; in recent years, individuals have ranked among the best in the world.
Come fence with us!
