“This great school was the whole world, in one location,” reflects Sydney, a 12th grader at Avenues New York.
Avenues is more than a school—it’s a global learning community for students from age 1 through 12th grade. With early immersion in Mandarin or Spanish and a well-established record of graduates attending selective colleges and universities, Avenues nurtures curiosity and confidence from the earliest years through graduation.
For Sydney, that journey took shape the day she tried something completely new: robotics. What began as curiosity transformed into confidence. She joined an all-girls engineering and robotics team, found friendship and mentorship, and soon was competing on a national stage, building, programming, and presenting as part of a team that believed in her and each other every step of the way.
“I didn’t think robotics was for me. But Avenues encouraged me to try. I found a team that believed in me—and a purpose I didn’t know I had.”
Sydney’s story is just one among many. At Avenues, students are empowered to explore boldly, collaborate deeply, and pursue their passions with purpose. Along the way, they develop the curiosity, empathy, and drive to become, in the words of our mission, “architects of lives that transcend the ordinary.”
At Avenues, students don’t just prepare for college, they learn to navigate the world with curiosity, confidence, and compassion.
For Brooklyn families, we make access easier, too. Daily transportation from multiple Brooklyn neighborhoods makes our Chelsea campus a compelling and convenient option for families seeking an education that’s future-focused, globally connected, and grounded in warmth and high expectations.
