Robert C Parker School
Robert C Parker School is a coed independent school for Pre K through 8th grade, 10 minutes from downtown Albany. Parker’s progressive philosophy nurtures curiosity, confidence, and community.
Attitudes about learning are established when students are young. By giving students opportunities to take action as they learn about their world, we help them grow into adults that will take responsibility for themselves and others in their communities. Parker students receive individualized attention from caring adults who engage with them through projects and facilitate connections with peers. Graduates leave Parker uniquely prepared to take on the challenges of high school and beyond.
The Doane Stuart School
Doane Stuart, the Capital Region's premier co-educational preparatory school for Grades 5-12 and preschool, is proudly celebrating its 50th anniversary!
Preschool is an essential time to build your child’s love of learning. Doane Stuart’s pre-k program will help your child gain confidence, build social skills, and prepare them for a seamless transition into kindergarten. Students receive the attention they need to flourish, with many children learning to read and developing their math skills at an early elementary level.
As one parent shared, “Who knew that our preschooler would be learning about electricity circuits, giving short presentations to his classmates, or diagramming sentences at such an early age? Our child went from dreading school to independently getting himself ready for class once we switched to Doane Stuart School.”
You will be delighted with your child’s progress and the joy they experience in our pre-k program. Schedule a tour today to see the Doane Stuart difference.
