Columbia Prep is an beautiful and much updated elite NYC private school located in New York, NY and is a member of the NAIS and the State Independent School Organization. It is a nonsectarian, co-educational day school serving children in Pre-kindergarten through 12th grade.
The Facts:
Columbia Prep has a student body of over 1000 and one of the lowest student teacher ratios in New York at about 7:1. It has an average of 7 hours of classroom time a day and the current school calendar calls for a 170 day school year vs. the 180 in public schools.

committed to a rigorous and comprehensive college preparatory curriculum with a serious emphasis on art, music and drama. The academic program is structured and balanced within the liberal arts and sciences in order to develop a student’s intellectual potential to its fullest for college and beyond. The program includes English, language arts, foreign language instruction, mathematics, the sciences, current and historical social studies, physical education, technology, and the fine arts. At the same time, the school recognizes its fundamental responsibility to develop good character, standards of conduct and a sense of social responsibility within the school community. The development of good citizenship in our students is regarded as a crucial and integral part of their education.
The Columbia Prep Private School has taken it’s responsibility to keep its facilities upgraded.
Also critical to our success as a school is our physical plant. In the last decade we have opened two new buildings with the finest facilities to be found anywhere, from a state-of-the-art theater to computer and science labs, five art studios, including filmmaking and photography, our third library, and a host of other academic areas that give us an enviable amount of academic space for all of our children and programs PK through 12.
