Who we are
The Jack & Jill School at St. George’s Church in NYC, is an independent, non-sectarian school for children ages 2 to 5.5 years old. We create an atmosphere of warmth and understanding so that all children can realize their full potential as individuals and as members of a community. We are a play based program. Our children learn through hands-on experiences that are both individually and teacher directed. We encourage children to pursue their interests as well as to try new and exciting things, both inside and out of the classroom. Our focus for any activity or project is on the process, not the final product. We offer Yoga, Chess, Soccer, Spanish and Creative Art Classes.
Our History
The School
The Jack & Jill School has been educating young children for over 75 years. Jack & Jill was established in 1949 as an institutional part of the Parish of St. George's Church to provide quality education for preschool age children. The mission of the school is to create an atmosphere compatible with the needs of young children who are developing socially, emotionally, and intellectually in varied and individual ways. The program is non-sectarian and draws from both the Parish and neighborhood families.
