Private Day & Boarding School in Long Island, NY
The Stony Brook School, Long Island:
The Stony Brook School, located in Stony Brook (50 miles East of NYC), on the beautiful north shore of Long Island, New York, is a college preparatory, co-educational boarding and day school for Grades 7-12.
Co-educational College Preparatory Program for students in Grades 7-12
Middle School (Grade 7-8)
The Middle School curriculum stresses skill building in a nurturing environment that encourages self-discipline and imagination. The development of mind, soul, and body unfolds within a framework of Christian values under the watchful care of a committed faculty.
The Middle School prepares students for the challenges they will face in the Upper School program, where they will continue the college preparatory process.
The program’s commitment to self-discipline and a student’s imagination encourages positive work habits, personal discovery, and critical thinking skills, in an environment that kindles an excitement for learning.
Upper School (Grade 9-12)
The Upper School program is designed to provide opportunities to develop the mind in all its facets: analytical, imaginative, and ethical. A student’s powers of expression mature and flower: the essay, public speaking, visual and performing arts.
While community values and rhythms gain resonance with each passing year, students realize that their contribution to and growth from this remarkable community is dependent on their own commitment and sacrifice to its Christian principles.
Leadership opportunities that put the needs of others before one’s own abound; these put a premium on cultivating the imagination in creative ways to serve one’s fellow students. The Upper School environment of increasing development of mind, personal expression, and personal responsibility to oneself and others is an outstanding preparation for college and life beyond.

It is generally expected that Stony Brook students will graduate with at least one Advanced Placement course, while 30-40% of our students graduate as AP Scholars, successfully completing three or more AP exams, with a score of three or better.
We offer: Biology, Calculus, Chemistry, English Literature, European History, French, Latin, Physics, Physics C (with Calculus), Political Science, Psychology, Spanish, Statistics, Studio Art, and United States History.
Boarding Programme:
