GIFTED STUDENTS NEED A SPECIALIZED SCHOOL.
The Nysmith School is for children who love to learn and have an aptitude to learn quickly. For gifted children, learning new information is like a nourishment. Boredom is demoralizing, and in many cases the children resort to other ways of entertaining and stimulating themselves.
"Nysmith has pushed me out of my comfort zone, given me lifelong skills as well as endless opportunities and I would not change it for the world. I will be forever grateful for the chance I got to attend this magnificent school. "

Less Unnecessary Repetition
Repetition for children who learn quickly is not only a lost opportunity to accelerate, in many cases it is the cause of anger, resistance, and can lead to a wide variety of behavior issues. At Nysmith, we minimize the repetition both in class and homework. Fostering a love and quest for intellectual stimulation for a lifetime. We teach the executive functions such as time organization and project management without unnecessary repetition. The net result is that not only will your child be able to continue moving forward academically, but it will both nurture their desire to learn more.
Our Program Is Designed For A Child Like Yours
It combines high levels of math, reading, science, technology, foreign language; while teaching them how to use their minds: to analyze data, problem-solve, formulate solutions, and effectively lead and collaborate with others.
We have designed our school for children who have both an aptitude and thirst for knowledge; and built our curriculum to support students who are working up to four grade levels ahead.
