Staten Island Academy

Staten Island Academy is a culturally and socio-economically diverse school. My children are happy, comfortable and intellectually challenged by a teaching staff that is talented and dedicated. The teachers, in turn, are supported by a dynamic and creative administrative team. We are very lucky to have a secure, verdant 12 acre campus where the children can play numerous sports or simply relax and commune with nature. Our visual and performing arts programs support and enrich our academic programs; and our academic programs are rigorous enough to get our grads into the best colleges in the country and a number of European colleges too.

A truly incredible school that focuses on academics in a caring, nurturing environment. Discipline is excellent and even social etiquette stressed. Children are encouraged to grow and are challenged. But the school avoids udue pressure and overdone competition amongst students. We are very happy with this school.
