Finding the perfect educational setting for your children is high on most parents’ lists. The Long Ridge School, a private preschool, pre-k, and early elementary school, was founded by a parent and educator nearly 90 years ago who understood that children learn at different rates and in different ways. The school was founded in 1938 with six children and has grown into the community that it is today. Our 2 year-old through fifth grade classrooms are filled with teachers who dedicate themselves to their students, balancing each child’s individual social, emotional, physical, and creative development.
Our private independent school offers various educational programs focusing on early childhood and elementary education. Our 14-acre campus allows teachers to use the outdoor space to their advantage, as students are allowed to explore and study the natural surroundings. Our Beginners and Pre-K programs within our early childhood education program help children build their confident sense in a warm and engaging learning environment. As a local private school, we provide language arts, math, science, and social studies to encourage our students to explore, experiment, and test ideas as they learn. We offer multi-age, two-year classrooms and a low student-teacher ratio to help foster meaningful relationships.
If you are interested in giving your son or daughter a high-quality education at a private school with small class sizes, consider Long Ridge for its strong academics in a joyful, safe environment. Our teachers nurture each student’s strengths and interests, build confidence and leadership skills, foster academic, social, and emotional development, and support future success.
