Head of School's Letter

Maren Holmen, Head of SchoolWelcome to The Beekman School!  You may just be discovering us, or have heard about our one-of-a-kind program and would like to learn more.  We have always made a point of sharing our knowledge regarding education in a flexible, caring environment, as we bring more than 95 years of experience in small group and individual class settings.  What has been touted elsewhere as “new” or “revolutionary” is what we have brought to the New York City metro area since 1925.  With the advent of online tools, Beekman has been able to direct and support student learning across the country and around the world.

The key to engaging students is in collaboration to further develop their strengths, while identifying and addressing areas in need of support. Whatever brought you here, we look forward to providing you with insights and answers that we have garnered from teaching our diverse community of learners for almost a century.  Whether your child is looking for a welcoming environment, a curriculum that can provide both challenge and support where needed, or the flexibility to approach your child's education in a unique way that accommodates non-academic needs, we can partner with you to develop an appropriate educational plan.

Warmly,

Maren Holmen

Head of School
