Sage Day At Boonton (Closed 2025)

Sage Day is a safe, nurturing environment designed for students for whom the large public school is overwhelming.
Typically, our students have been diagnosed as suffering from depression, school phobia, anxiety and other similar disorders.
They are often described as being emotionally "fragile. Achieving our mission goals requires a new approach to teaching and learning.
At Sage Day we use a therapeutic approach to education to develop a meaningful understanding of each child and family.
This helps us establish a partnership between school and family, so together we can guide our students to success.
