A Tiny, Highly Personalized Elementary School in Midwood
Families seeking an intimate, highly supervised learning environment for young children, particularly those who benefit from significant adult attention or have learning needs that require low student-to-adult ratios. This school suits parents who prioritize personalized care over a large peer community.
- Extraordinarily low student-teacher ratio (0.7:1) — among the lowest in the city
- Tiny community of just 21 students creates a family-like atmosphere
- Serves pre-K through 5th grade in a combined setting
- Nonsectarian with no religious affiliation requirements
- Very small enrollment may limit extracurricular offerings and social breadth
- Extremely high teacher-to-student ratio may reflect inclusion of specialists rather than classroom teachers — worth clarifying during a visit
- Predominantly white student body may not reflect Brooklyn's broader diversity
- May feel too small for children who thrive in larger peer groups
- As a private school, tuition costs will be significant
A nonsectarian progressive elementary school with an unusually low student-teacher ratio — this means your child will get far more one-on-one time with adults than at typical schools
The student body is predominantly white (71.4%) with meaningful Asian representation (23.8%). There is minimal Hispanic, Black, or multiracial representation.
The school sits in the Madison neighborhood of Brooklyn, a residential area in Midwood with moderate family density (61/100). This is a traditionally working-class neighborhood with a mix of single-family homes and small apartments, located near Avenue P and the neighborhood's commercial strips.
The area is generally walkable with access to local shops and transit options along Avenue P and nearby Kings Highway
