The diverse and inclusive K-8 Blue Rock School, in Rockland County—where children play and imagine as hard as they study—is currently accepting applications for the 2023 to 2024 school year. This West Nyack-based private school has been fostering confident critical thinkers for more than three decades and invites those interested in enrolling a student to inquire and come take a tour of the beautiful five-acre wooded campus.

The school was founded in 1982 with the purpose of providing a rich educational experience based on a child-centered, hands-on approach that nurtures children’s innate love of learning and natural curiosity. Blue Rock class sizes are small and students engage in a challenging academic curriculum that is balanced and fully integrated with the arts, nature and play.

In keeping with the best practices in education that prioritize real world problem solving and hands-on experiences, Blue Rock students can be found exploring outside year-round, developing interpersonal skills and learning with wonder as they dive into a dynamic curriculum preparing them for a changing world.
