I think what is great about this school is the staff who is so embracing and helpful. I am a potential parent who had some concerns and the individual I spoke to allay my fears and instructed me what to do. This school ranks high on my list

Great academics, teachers, parent body and nurturing environment for the children!!!

Spence without a doubt the best, most nurturing, encouraging school in New York. The girls are confident, intelligent, and well-rounded from performing and visual arts to intense sports and academics.

Spence is an academically challenging school with a very high quality and nsupportive/engaged faculty. The new head of school Bodie Brizendine (2nd year at Spence) is warm, yet very professional and very high energy. The school has a buzz of energy that you feel upon entering the doors. We have 2 daughters enrolled and are very happy!
