My daughters have been at the Elisabeth Morrow School for 3 years, and truly love it! The school has provided unparalleled education, and they cultivate great character skills / education in children through modeling the four C’s — Courtesy, Consideration, Cooperation, and Compassion, while also fostering a sense of community amongst students and families. The school is also very diverse and everyone feels welcomed and appreciated. We're happy with our decision, and can't imagine going anywhere else.

Review The Elisabeth Morrow School

I cannot say enough good things about EMS! It has truly been nothing short of incredible to watch our daughter grow, learn and become more curious these last three years. Despite the pandemic, our daughter was able to attend full day in person learning!! The small intimate class sizes and phenomenal student : teacher ratio meant that she had 2 full time teachers in her kindergarten class of 14 children and an assistant teacher in addition to her homeroom teacher in first and second grade. This individual attention has allowed her reading, math and science skills to develop quickly, while also providing extra help with areas she needs more attention with. The 4'c of EMS: Courtesy, Consideration, Cooperation, and Compassion shine though in every aspect of the EMS curriculum and experience and we can't wait for our younger daughter to start school in September!

It is a testament to their core philosophy of always putting the child first that my children made it through this pandemic being able to attend school 5 days a week, full-time, receiving live instruction from in person teachers. I will forever be grateful to EMS just for that. But even in a normal year, EMS is a school worthy of consideration if you’re looking at independent schools. The faculty get to know your child and appreciate them for their unique qualities and talents. The academics are robust, without being overly burdensome. My soon-to-be graduate got into her first choice high school and we know that because of the foundation she received at EMS she’ll be able to keep up with the work and, more importantly, advocate for herself. And the fact that EMS is $10K cheaper than most NYC independent schools doesn’t hurt either!
