The Town School vs. Trevor Day School

Since 1913, Town has been committed to an educational philosophy that balances high academic expectations with nurturing support.

We know that children learn best in a school where everything ' from the teaching to the educational programs to the way the classroom spaces are designed ' is geared to giving children what they need when they need it.

The Town School is committed to elementary coeducation, cultivating the joy of learning in a rigorous and nurturing environment.

The program balances the traditional and innovative, providing each child the opportunity to develop intellectual curiosity, attain academic excellence and grow in self-reliance.

The faculty and parents share a commitment to recognizing and developing each child's uniqueness, moral responsibility and social awareness.

The Town School is a coeducational, nursery through eighth grade school.

Town sets high academic and ethical standards; at the same time, we cultivate a love of learning, believing that the process of learning is as important as the result.

An independent, Nursery through Grade 12 coeducational day school, Trevor Day School educates college-bound students to achieve academic and personal excellence in an inquiry-driven, idea-rich community. Trevor celebrates diversity of thought, experiences, and culture; promotes compassion, collaboration, courage, and creativity; and develops in children a recognition of their own unique potential as lifelong learners and leaders who act as responsible global citizens.

Trevor enrolls more than 700 students in a coeducational setting on two campuses on the Upper East Side and Upper West Side of Manhattan.

Trevor`s rigorous college preparatory curriculum is designed to confer academic mastery while students develop the self-confidence, original perspective, courage, and perseverance to thrive in any idea-rich arena.

Perceptive, quick-thinking, devoted teachers, highly collaborative team-building spaces, an inviting, inclusive, and grounded family culture, and daily opportunities for interpersonal and intellectual interaction transform Trevor students into proactive agents of their own learning.
