By enhancing the proven success of Blue School’s dynamically balanced educational program, Blue School Connected integrates an immersive digital learning experience with in-person learning. It cultivates academic mastery, creative thinking and self and social awareness, while inspiring a growing passion for learning. The success of the Blue School approach is most evident in its graduates, who have been accepted to and are excelling at many of New York’s finest high schools.
Embedded in the Blue School Connected program is an intentional emphasis on human relationships and peer to peer relationship-building through a combination of in-person and live online instruction, group discussions, and one-on-one teacher / student connection. The Blue School educational team is committed to truly knowing and seeing each individual child in order to support the development of their fullest potential.
Blue School Connected champions a new approach to learning, and emboldens big individual thinking while sharing collective thought and projects. It is a joyful, community-centered experience empowering students to be capable, creative and courageous innovators of a harmonious and sustainable world.
Because the future is ever-changing, education must be fluid and responsive to the realities of our world. The Blue School Connected - Onsite + Online program expertly combines in-person and digital engagement to achieve our educational goals.
Onsite at Blue School allows our connected community of learners to come together in our downtown NYC campus for collaborative experiences and learning. Blue School is taking all health and safety regulations and facilities guidelines into account, adjusting class sizes, space planning, schedules and programming to prioritize the safety and wellbeing of our community.
Online learning is integrated throughout the year, seamlessly connecting the onsite and online experience.

We believe children’s learning is enhanced by a vital school-to-parent partnership. Blue School parents are dedicated collaborators in this unique educational experience. We foster this crucial relationship by providing numerous opportunities to encourage parents to exchange ideas with school leaders, support parents through the Families Association, affinity groups, round tables with child development specialists, and ongoing Blue Notes speaker series with thought leaders in education and human development, such as our Advisory Board Members Sir Ken Robinson, Dr. Dan Siegel and authors Mira Jacob, Caroline Welch and more. Over the course of the year, our full parent body comes together for community-wide programming that continues to define the Blue School experience.

“We have been blown away by our teachers’ dedication and their unique ability to truly understand, motivate and nurture each individual child in the class...They have made each child feel supported, loved, and ready for 3rd grade; both academically and emotionally.”
- Monica Slack, class parent, on behalf of all 2nd A families
“My daughter has been a part of this school and its community since she was 2 years old. It has rooted for her on her worst of days, buoyed her in her saddest moments, and has helped shape and mold her into the human she is today - always enthusiastic to learn, always eager to share, and always so glad to be here.”
- Shino Moffitt, 5th grade parent
“In our first year at Blue School, we can see our children's unique brilliance expanding in profoundly beautiful ways!”
- Aleijuan King, 5th and 7th grade parent
“[Blue School has] fostered my son’s curiosity at an exceptional level with the virtual mediums available. I have noticed this particularly through the water experiments, provocations, story telling, the journaling, and making activities. All of which have meant he could explore his own way, as open ended as possible leaving no limit.”
- Lucia Stoisor, 4/5s parent
