Welcome to Garden School!

 


Garden School, located in the heart of Jackson Heights, is a NYSAIS-accredited college preparatory school serving Nursery through Grade 12. We operate in the independent school tradition, prioritizing learning and empowering each student within our diverse community. Our mission is to prepare students for real-world challenges by fostering academic excellence, personal growth, and social responsibility. Recognizing each student's individuality, we cultivate self-worth as a foundation for future success.

We are currently focused on implementing our multi-year "Road to 100" Strategic Plan, which outlines how Garden School will continue to refine its offerings, invest in resources, and strengthen the programs that have made it a leader in education.

Unveiling Your Child's Potential

Garden School offers a comprehensive educational program that spans Early Childhood through Upper Division. Our youngest learners, in Nursery, Pre-K, and Kindergarten, embark on their educational journey with us, establishing a strong foundation for future learning. As students progress through the Lower Division (Grades 1-6), they experience a balanced curriculum that combines core academics with enriching specialist classes. Finally, in the Upper Division (Grades 7-12), students benefit from personalized attention, strong relationships with teachers, and a curriculum designed to create meaningful educational experiences.

Beyond the Scorecard

We understand that the right fit for your child goes beyond just grades and test scores. Our college search process focuses on finding the perfect match for each graduate – a place where they can flourish academically and personally. Garden School takes pride in its alumni network, with graduates attending top universities that align with their individual aspirations.
