A private high school
in New York

I am excited to welcome you to EF Academy New York, a school that offers you a robust American-style high school education in an international context. We provide a stimulating learning environment where every one of our students will meet or exceed his or her own expectations.

Our campus is tucked away in the quiet suburban town of Thornwood. There is as much to do outside as in the modern science labs, impressive theater and inspiring dance and art studios inside. It is my goal, and the goal of our faculty and staff, to give you the space and encouragement to discover and pursue your passions. We pride ourselves in the fact that students from around the world – even those who have travelled thousands of miles – call the safe, supportive community we have built here home. As if the energy on campus weren’t enough, the excitement of New York City is only 45 minutes from our doorstep.

If I only had three words to describe the experience and culture at EF Academy New York, I would use: inspiring, challenging and caring. Join us for a life-changing experience that will bring out your very best.
