I attended Tuxedo Park School in the 1990s and have the fondest memories of my experience there: super dedicated, energetic teachers, engaging classwork, so many school traditions that I remember to this day. I feel the school really touched off a love of learning that propelled me through high school at a competitive independent school, then on to Yale, and a rewarding career in journalism. For anyone investigating their school options, I highly recommend taking a look at TPS!

Tuxedo Park School provides strong academics, encourages students to embrace challenges, and values curiosity and independent thinking. Character education is emphasized and is thoughtfully woven into lessons. Academic work is rigorous and meaningful. This is all done in a nurturing environment among supportive peers and teachers who know their students well. Students gain valuable skills such as time management, collaboration, public speaking, and leadership. Teachers are continuously learning as well, staying current in their fields and teaching with enthusiasm. Coming from a school where our daughter felt bored and unengaged, she thrived at TPS and learned to love school again. We only wish we had made the move sooner!

Descent. I attended TPS for 10 years, and I can confirm the school is not what it once was. Yet of course I will treasure fond memories I have made at this school, whether it be from socializing with my friends in first grade or going to China in ninth grade, it will always be regarded as a happy place in my memories. However, I left when TPS was beginning to dwindle in their performance. I have a sibling who currently attends and she and her friends can confirm the academics are par with public schools now. The good teachers that enlightened me on extraordinary topics have all left. Now you are stuck with mediocre teachers. The current head of school is not doing a proficient job in hiring the best faculty! The population of students attending this school has decreased dramatically! When I left TPS, there were 250 students, now there are only 160! That right there is saying something. Bottom line: academics - good, sports - acceptable, performing arts - great, food - ehh.
