International IB School in New York City
The Dwight School, Manhattan:
Founded in 1872, The Dwight School is a PreK-12 private international school located on Manhattan’s Upper West Side in New York City.

Our Mission:
The Dwight School vibrates with adventure, wonder, energy and the mysteries of our world. Our task is to orchestrate a mosaic of talented individuals who will ignite the “unique spark of genius” within each student, teachers who can change how a student thinks about himself and the world.
Our mantras are to dare to dream, to have the courage to take intellectual risks, and to build leaders through action.
Student Profile:
Parents often ask what Dwight looks for in an applicant. The answer is: an open-minded young person with a sincere desire to learn, and a spark of interest that can be fanned to illuminate the student’s full array of talents.
Through the International Baccalaureate Program, Dwight’s goal is to educate internationally-minded individuals who will be caring, principled leaders. Dwight students and faculty strive to live that credo daily.
Dwight Community:
The Dwight School is like a great orchestra co-ordinating harmony among children from nearly 40 countries. What makes Dwight special is an ability to harvest the rich resources of parents, alumni, teachers, and community to nourish a meaningful educational adventure for each student.

The School for Strings, New York
Courses / Programs
Located in Manhattan, New York, The School for Strings has been New York’s premiere Suzuki-based music school since 1970, providing outstanding instrumental instruction in violin, cello, piano and fiddle to thousands of children and teenagers. In agreement with Dr. Shinichi Suzuki’s ideas, the School’s philosophy is that through the study of music, all children can achieve beyond their expectations. Dr. Suzuki's educational precepts are based on his conviction that every child can be educated and the corollary assumption that every child will be educated. Success is built into his approach, both in the manner of teaching and in the choice of repertoire contained in the volumes of the Suzuki Violin, Cello and Piano Schools.
Children learn the fundamentals of classical music: rhythm, melody, harmony, tempo, dynamics and articulation. By fostering close collaboration between parents, teachers, and students, we aim to build the love of music, self-confidence, discipline and outstanding achievement in every student. In Suzuki study therefore, children learn to play their instrument at first by ear, learning the music they are to play by extensive listening to recordings of each piece.
