The Greenvale School vs. Friends Academy

The Green Vale School mission: In a vibrant program of academics, arts, athletics, and character education, The Green Vale School inspires and challenges all students to be their best.

A Green Vale education instills confidence and competence, while promoting respect and responsibility as cornerstones of a lifetime of learning and global citizenship.

Sincere consideration for each child fosters a love of learning and teaches children to excel, to lead and to care.

Since 1876, Friends Academy has set the standard of Academic Excellence on Long Island. We are the #1 ranked K-12 private school on Long Island. Our extraordinary academic program is enchanced by our timeless Quaker values and provides an exceptional education for our students.

At Friends Academy, we achieve educational excellence by committing to the highest standards of learning and living. Our welcoming and diverse community is strengthened by our Quaker values, which empower our students to inquire, reflect, and engage in their classrooms, in their neighborhoods, and in the world. Because when we inspire students to learn and live with purpose, they can achieve greatness without sacrificing goodness.
