About

We offer a unique program that uses the city's museums and cultural institutions to enrich our curricula. Our current partners are the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney, Japan Society, Schomburg Center, and Hudson River Community Sailing, who each become extensions of our classrooms, affording students the hands-on experience needed to make learning deep, challenging, and engaging. Classroom instruction draws upon learning that takes place in the field, and deepens it with content that compels questioning, reflection, and insight. In addition to our regular course sequences we offer 12 Advanced Placement courses and 3 world languages. We are an AP Capstone school. Upon graduation our students are well prepared to enter an excellent 4 year college or university. Diversity in Admissions (DIA): Priority to applicants eligible for free or reduced price lunch for 50% of seats.

Art
The N.Y.C. Museum School offers a four-year studio arts sequence that aligns with the benchmarks of the New York City Department of Education Blueprint for Teaching And Learning in the Arts. This year for 2024-24 we have also offered Photoshop as an elective for students. We offer a variety of interdisciplinary arts courses taught by teachers who are fully certified and licensed to teach in the field of arts. Museum module courses are unique to our school and provide students with the opportunity to participate in specialized museum-based courses that are correlated with in-school regents courses. In order to provide students with as rich an art education as possible, we strive to reinforce the connections between the arts and the core curriculum. Students frequently visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Japan Society, The American Museum of Natural History, Museum of the City of New York, The Paley Center for Media, The Whitney Museum of American Art, The Guggenheim, The Museum of Modern Art and more! The arts are a highly valued part of the N.Y.C. Museum School experience.
