Overview Paragraph

The Heritage School, founded in 1996, is a partnership between the New York City Department of Education and Teachers College, Columbia University. We are a small learning community that fosters the development of respectful citizens and leaders who possess the academic and social skills as well as the habits of mind to be successful in higher education and the world beyond. In addition to our comprehensive curriculum, The Heritage School is fortunate to be in a building and neighborhood that is immersed in culture, community, and pride.
