At Professional Children’s School, you don’t have to choose between a great education and your dreams.

Professional Children’s School (PCS) provides a rigorous college preparatory program for busy artists, athletes, and innovators in grades 6 through 12. Young people in serious pursuit of their dreams can find balance at PCS, where traditional academic studies are met with an adaptable approach to accommodate the unique needs of each ambitious individual.

Based in New York City, Professional Children’s School is the choice academic institution for passionate, career-minded students. Through the hybrid Guided Study program, flexible and customized schedules, and customized college counseling, PCS sets students up for current and long-term career success. For more than 110 years, students have come from around the world to experience a PCS education so they can pursue their dreams in tandem with an exceptional college-preparatory education. Niche.com awarded Professional Children’s School the recognition of “Best College Prep Schools in America” in 2024.

The PCS schedule is designed to be flexible, empowering students to take ownership of their studies in school while celebrating their goal-oriented explorations. Through thoughtful advising, distance learning options, and customized scheduling, PCS students experience an educational environment that supports their social and emotional development as they become well-rounded contributing members of society. Students at Professional Children’s School are actively pursuing their passions including music, dance, film, and athletics. PCS alumni are legendary and have become world-class musicians, esteemed actors, successful lawyers, prominent journalists, prima ballerinas, and more.

PCS is an independent day school, innovatively using the hybrid Guided Study program allowing students to travel for work and train as needed. Students on Guided Study are traveling for National Tours, training for global competitions, or recording in the studio. By providing students with an accommodating and supportive environment, they gain independence and self-accountability at adult levels, setting them up for long-term success in their chosen fields and beyond. PCS provides the balance between a traditional college-preparatory education with a flexible, hybrid approach to student empowerment.

At Professional Children’s School, students are enabled to invest in their academic studies in concert with their professional and pre-professional pursuits. PCS believes that education is a lifelong process of primary importance, and that it is not only an intellectual endeavor, but one that encompasses artistic, emotional, spiritual and physical growth as well. PCS encourages critical thinking, aesthetic appreciation, formation of values, and sound health and fitness, while also fostering intellectual curiosity, initiative and creativity in all areas of life. PCS students go on to attend the world’s most prestigious universities, colleges, and conservatories.
