Philosophy Day School is an independent day school for boys and girls that goes from Nursery to Fifth Grade. Set in a spacious historic brownstone on the Upper East Side, the school is half a block from Central Park and the Metropolitan Museum. Philosophy Day School provides a rich and engaging environment that ensures academic excellence as well as the development of good character. Students practice the virtues of honesty, generosity, consideration and courage, which are integrated daily into Philosophy Day School life. Our education bestows children with a love of knowledge while simultaneously building good character that will last a lifetime.
