The students come from the local metropolitan area, from the greater New York City region, other areas of the United States, and many international locations. At Knox, all the students, regardless of their cultural background, form a common culture based on the school’s traditions and benefit immensely from the close personal attention they receive. There simply is no “back row” at Knox. Every adult, from the Headmaster to the Administration, and from the teaching faculty to the staff, serves as a mentor, a role model, and a “parent” who understands that young people require structure, rise to standards of excellence, and thrive with constant encouragement.
Students discover quickly that in a small school they have a voice; they have a unique opportunity to not only participate in clubs, sports, and other activities, but also to take on leadership roles that truly impact the life of the school. At Knox, students will take that A.P. course, play on the team, create a new club, and lead a classroom discussion.
You are invited to learn more about the school by visiting the website, reading promotional materials, and visiting for a tour and interview.
