Tuxedo Park School is an independent day school located in Tuxedo Park, New York, United States and serving the surrounding counties in both New York and New Jersey. The school enrolls students in Pre-K up to the 9th grade (now known as the 'Freshman' year).
Founded in 1900 for the purpose of educating children living in Tuxedo Park (having been founded in 1886 by Pierre Lorillard), the institution grew from a staff of two with 38 pupils[1] from the outset to a current 125 students, sporting an average student-to-teacher ratio of 5:1.[2]
Under the leadership of Anthony Barber in the early 1940s, the school received a New York State Charter and became an official not-for-profit institution.
Since the late 1950s the school has occupied a brick mansion house styled in the fashion of an English manor, formerly owned by John and Natalie Blair. The building is therefore referred to as 'Blairhame' in their memory.[3]
Small by design, the school maintains a low student-teacher ratio. The curriculum includes a blend of core academics, foreign language (beginning in Pre-K 3), fine and performing arts, athletics, community service, environmental stewardship, and character education.[4]
All Upper school (Grades 7, 8, and 9) and 6th grade students are required to engage in an interscholastic sport while attending the school, options which include soccer, volleyball, tennis, squash, golf, both girls and boys lacrosse, basketball, and track and field, along with various other sport options, such as fitness or yoga.[5]
Intra-scholastic competition is constructed around the annual Green and Gold competition. At the end of second grade, students are placed on a team, which competes each year in a multitude of activities, ranging from spelling bees to various artistic events, culminating in a grand athletic finale known as 'Field Day', often being the final determiner of a team's success.[6]
