The Elisabeth Morrow School

About
"We will forever be thankful for EMS, where my kids seem to be picking up values integral to a democratic society—curiosity, empathy, an appreciation for diversity."

Shabri Mitta, Parent
Why EMS?
“EMS’s culture is exemplary of what others schools strive to be — inclusive, multi-cultural, think out of the box, and a nurturing place where children grow into independent thinkers. On top of all of that, given it’s nestled in a forestry corner of Bergen County, it allows one to feel as if one is in a quiet utopia that seems to be protected from the fast-paced world we now live in."

Betsy Tyras, RN

“Secondary schools tell us that EMS students have a unique desire to contribute to their new schools that really sets them apart from other freshmen.”

Families
"What struck me immediately when our family came to EMS was how wonderful the parent body was. They are the hidden treasure of EMS: warm, generous, and always ready to volunteer and lend their hands to a cause."
