Wonderful school for my son. Four years into his time at school and he continues to thrive. Highly recommend looking into Quad!

Quad Prep is an excellent school that has changed my son's life. My son is smart and neurodiverse and Quad has met all his needs while keeping him challenged academically. We moved from a popular private school in NYC to Quad and are only regret is that we didn't do it sooner. This school works really hard to meet kids where they are and open doors for new opportunities. Great teachers and supportive staff.
