The Caedmon School

The Caedmon School is the leader when it comes to providing well-rounded elementary education for the whole child. The Caedmon School prepares children well for life after elementary school, whether it's in areas of academics, social development, or emotional intelligence. But, it's not just about what they learn at Caedmon: their Caedmon experience will leave them with wonderful memories and confidence for life! In my opinion, all great elementary schools should aspire to become like The Caedmon School: excellent across the board with a schoolhouse that is child-centric (even the faucets are made for the little ones!) nestled on the upper east side of Manhattan. My family and I are so fortunate to be a part of this lovely school community and I am so happy that I discovered this hidden treasure. We have been a part of the Caedmon community for 7 wonderful years!!!

This is our second year of having the privilege of sending our children to The Caedmon School and being part of a truly special community. The care for the individual child and their unique educational journey is paramount to the incredibly talented teachers and compassionate staff. We are having so much fun watching our children grow into curious and engaged little learners. The classrooms are beautiful and bright and our pre-school aged children have access to all the facilities of an elementary school (music room, art studio, STEAM lab and a gym to name a few). We love being a part of the Caedmon community, a diverse and down to earth group of families dedicated to the development and enrichment of our children.

Caedmon has been a warm and safe place for our daughter to grow for the past seven years. In-school learning was seamless during the Covid Pandemic as the community moved heaven and earth to keep the school open safely. Last but not least, as a child with medical needs the excellent nursing team has been a true blessing in her school experience. I am so thankful for this school.

Our family has been at Caedmon for five years now and our children couldn't be happier. In many ways the school is an extension of our family. The teachers and staff are caring and wonderfully gifted in making learning exciting and fun. The head of school is a passionate and engaged leader, and always on the steps to welcome everyone at morning drop-off. Caedmon graduates go on to great schools and benefit from having been part of a community that brings out the best in one another.

My daughter spent 7 years at Caedmon. It's a lovely community with an excellent faculty/leadership team. Highly recommend.

I went here from pre-K through 5th grade. Everything was ok academically till 4th grade and in 5th grade it honestly amazes me the schools that I got into. I didn't know how to do long division and my mom had to teach me it herself in the summer before 6th grade. I got punched 2 times while I was at Caedmon and in 5th grade when I sent one of the kids who punched me to the principals office, since his parents were such big donors, they did nothing about the situation. They treat the donors kids specially and we had to raise money holding bake sales before class for our own field trips. They did nothing on the instance on bullying whatsoever. We had 30 minutes of activity a day. And we had 'silent lunch's where they stopped the kids from talking to each other in the one time of day that was dedicated to social time. A bunch on kids whould show up late and there were no consequences. We had one class where we litterally did nothing but play Minecraft. There was little diversity in our class.
