Thank you for your interest in The Caedmon School, where we celebrate and value childhood! Caedmon offers an early childhood through Grade 5 educational model for ages 2 through 10 years and an incredibly diverse and welcoming community. As the first Montessori school in Manhattan, our early childhood classrooms are bright with sunlight, wood, and engaging Montessori materials. In the elementary years, our Montessori-inspired approach incorporates Montessori values with a personalized education and continues to develop independence, coordination, concentration, organization, and curiosity. Additionally, students are exposed to a variety of hands-on curricula through design thinking, project-based learning, and having a voice and choice in the classroom.

Here are just a few highlights of our program:

40% international families

20% male faculty

29% FACULTY OF COLOR

Spanish (Kindergarten through Elementary)

Latin (Grades 3 through 5)

Violin (Kindergarten through Grade 3)

Exemplary Middle School placement (typically 3 choices per graduate)

Emotionally engaged and responsive faculty

We invite you to come visit us online for our spring virtual tour and panel discussion, an online Curiosity Class, or our Zoom Story Time to see and hear for yourself the joy in learning that our students experience every day. There is no need to apply before scheduling any of these events. At the spring virtual tour and panel, you’ll have the opportunity to speak with me, our Head of School, our Head of Program, and a current parent and to see a virtual tour of our beautiful, light classrooms. In the fall, we will host a Family Open House where you can speak directly with students, teachers, and parents from our community and/or come for a Tour to see the teachers and children working together in the classrooms.

We look forward to getting to know you and your child in the coming months!

Warmest regards,
