Our Vision

Building on our enduring strength, embracing what lies ahead.

At The Storm King School, we are building on our enduring strength and embracing the limitless possibilities ahead. Our new state-of-the-art Academic Center will unite bright, curious students from around the world in modern, well-equipped spaces that foster innovation, collaboration, and growth. Combining new construction with the renovation of Dyar Hall—including the Warren P. Leonard Lobby, 1970s Viewing Deck, and Delaney & Epstein Classroom—the $3.5 million project will expand our academic capacity and enhance the campus experience. With $2.95 million already raised, your support will help us reach our goal and advance Storm King’s mission for generations to come.

Creating possibilities.

The new Academic Center will increase the size and number of classrooms from five (5) to ten (10). The building’s interior will be designed to support interactive and collaborative learning, and to create gathering spaces for students and faculty. Our goal is to create a learning environment that fosters creativity and innovation while being adaptable to future educational needs.

From Our Head of School
“The new classroom spaces will provide bright, modern, and flexible learning spaces for our faculty to create the exciting classes of the future.”
