Garden School Nyc

Garden School is the finest co-ed, Nursery to Grade 12, NYSAIS-accredited, independent college prep school in Jackson Heights, Queens. Small by design, we provide 315 students with a strong and highly enriched academic experience that offers a realistic option for New York families. Garden students thrive in small class sizes because they receive a greater degree of individual attention which helps them realize their academic potential. That’s the key advantage of a Garden School education: higher academic standards combined with an environment conducive to scholastic excellence. Garden's secure, fully-enclosed, well-equipped campus is situated on a quiet street in New York's most diverse borough. Our student body reflects our surroundings and encourages a healthy and positive cultural exchange. Our close working community of educators, parents and students create an environment where students are recognized for who they are, and their unique identity is cultivated to better awaken intellectual curiosity and inspire independent thinking. At Garden, the community itself supports students to try new things, try harder, and try again. Our reading specialist, art, music, chess and world languages classes, interscholastic sports program, 7 AP courses, robotics and debate clubs, afterschool program and comprehensive college counseling contribute to a Garden student's success. Private bus transportation, a lunch program and tuition assistance are available. Tours are scheduled at families' convenience. Weekly Open Houses are scheduled every Wednesday at 9 AM.
