Ross School, Private education institution in East Hampton, United States
Ross School is a private institution on Long Island that provides education from early childhood through grade 12 across two locations. The school maintains a student-teacher ratio of approximately 1 to 7 and offers more than 100 elective courses for students to choose from.
The school was founded in 1991 as a girls-only day institution by Courtney Sale Ross. It was named in memory of her late husband, Steven J. Ross.
The school weaves world history and global perspectives into everyday subjects like math, science, and languages. This approach shapes how students engage with learning and helps them see connections between different cultures and knowledge areas.
Students from grade 7 onward have the option to attend on a five-day schedule or board full-time at the school. Plan ahead when visiting since school facilities may have limited access during academic sessions.
The Field Academy program sends students and teachers around the world for three-week intensive blocks focused on hands-on project work. This approach takes learning outside the traditional classroom and gives students real-world experience between regular academic terms.
