Morningside Heights Preschools & Schools
Morningside Heights sits atop the Upper West Side, roughly between 110th and 125th Streets, anchored by Columbia University, Barnard, Teachers College, and the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. It's a quieter, intellectual neighborhood, and its schools reflect that: a cluster of academically serious, progressive K–8 independents alongside long-established nursery schools, many with university or church ties.
