Beacon is located on Commerce Road near the Old Greenwich border in Stamford. Our spacious facility centers around a student lounge in which students have the freedom to work independently, collaborate in groups, play music and socialize. Classes take place in comfortable classrooms that facilitate discussion and interaction–there is no sleeping in the back of the class at Beacon! Highlights include our open art studio, professional dance studio, new science lab, cafe-style dining hall and the dueling baby grands in the student lounge.
Our athletic facilities are housed at the New York Sports Club next door, where students have access to a full gym, pool, squash courts, aerobic equipment, yoga, pilates and martial arts. Physical education classes take place at the Sports Club and at nearby playing fields, parks and nature trails.
