Our Mission

The Greene Hill School is an independent school for children ages two through twelve that serves the need of the Fort Greene/Clinton Hill and surrounding Brooklyn communities for affordable and progressive education. We actively involve families in their children's school and children in their own education. We promote learning through an interdisciplinary curriculum, appreciation of critical thinking and open-ended investigation of neighborhood and beyond. Founded with the understanding that community is the backbone of society, Greene Hill School guides children to become dedicated members of a diverse, democratic society.

Diversity Statement

Greene Hill School is dedicated to achieving a racially and economically diverse balance of children and their families reflective of people in the Fort Greene/Clinton Hill/Wallabout, Brooklyn community. Understanding that tuition is often a barrier to diversity in independent schools, it is the goal of Greene Hill to keep tuition at a minimum. As we build an endowment, we hope to offer tuition reductions to a significant percentage of our families.
