The Masters School offers one of the only boarding school experiences in the New York metropolitan area. Set amid 96 acres of fields and woodlands overlooking the Hudson River, our students have a scenic and comfortable environment for living and learning. The combination of boarding and day students results in an exceptionally dynamic and diverse community life where students from across the country and around the globe form strong friendships with each other and with day students.

Here, there is no pressure to conform to a particular mold: students are free to be who they are: teenagers. A thoughtfully designed residential life program ensures that all the experiences students would have at home—from nights at the movies to dances to driver’s ed—are part of campus life.

Home Away from Home
Dorms feature all the amenities students need to live comfortably and thrive academically and socially. All rooms have phones and high-speed Internet connections, and each dorm is equipped with washer-dryers and contains a number of common areas, including kitchens and TV/VCR rooms.

Free Time: On Your Own
Students have the freedom and flexibility to pursue new interests and develop unique talents. Faculty and advisors are always on hand to provide support and to help develop good decision-making and time-management skills.

Endless Weekend Possibilities
On weekends, boarders engage in a range of on-campus activities, including art studio, open gym, concerts, coffee houses, movies, dances, and dorm challenges. Off campus, students enjoy trips to New York City, nearby ski areas, horseback riding trails, local shops, and Westchester County’s historic sites and attractions. During six “Community Weekends,” all boarders stay on campus for special programs Day students are always welcome on campus and for excursions.

Faculty: Always There for You
Each dorm has four “parents” who create a warm and homelike environment. Faculty are available day and night and become familiar with the details of students’ lives so they can address any issues as they arise. Students, in turn, know they can always receive sound advice from a dorm parent. In addition, each boarding student has a dedicated faculty advisor who lives on campus. Along with active guidance, faculty provide a valuable example: as professionals, parents, husbands, and wives, they model the School’s fundamental values of integrity, service, and concern for others.
