Why The Cathedral School?

Our diverse student population reflects our view of Hellenism as an inclusive and universal model that, linked to modern education, produces inquisitive, creative, and academically strong graduates.

Our school size and exceptional student-teacher ratio create a warm community in which each student receives the individual attention needed to help them thrive.

Advanced Curriculum and enrichment classes from PreK3 to 8th Grade

Foreign language classes beginning in preschool produce students with stronger cognitive and verbal skills.

We are conveniently located in the Upper East Side of Manhattan, near major subway and bus lines.

Frequent trips to The Metropolitan Museum of Art, as well as The New York Tenement Museum, MoMa, The Bronx Zoo, The Museum of Natural History, the National Museum of the American Indian, The Jewish Museum, and The Morgan Library, complement the curriculum and provide a deeper understanding of world history, religion, culture, and the arts.
