hether you are looking for your child’s first pre-school experience, ready to transition your young child into elementary school, or have a middle school student in need of a different, more positive environment to bring out all that is special about him or her – we invite you to explore The Bethlehem Children’s School. We believe you will discover a unique place to learn, ask questions, build meaningful relationships, and grow.

Located on a wooded four-acre property in Slingerlands, New York, our students are supported academically and nurtured creatively as they grow into thoughtful, well-rounded individuals. At the end of their time with us, children leave The Bethlehem Children’s School fully prepared to take on the challenges of high school, college, and our world.

We are proud of the fact that our current student body comes to The Bethlehem Children’s School from eight different school districts in the Capital Region.

The Bethlehem Children’s School has a rolling admissions policy, so give us a call today to arrange a visit: (518) 478-0224.

Being the parent of a child attending public school and a child attending BCS, the difference in their educational experience is huge. BCS has provided a more relaxed, less stressful environment that has allowed my son to explore and grow both educationally and socially. He feels comfortable and enjoys learning and being able to explore and build upon his own strengths.

Although the education in public school is acceptable, the environment is much less relaxed and they  strictly  adhere  to a curriculum consisting largely of worksheets and very regimented activities. The hands-on learning, that is so integral at BCS is impossible to reproduce in even the “smaller” size classrooms of a public school. The confidence that comes with being a part of a community and having the opportunity to explore and appreciate learning, both individually and within a group, is what sets The Bethlehem Children’s School apart from any other educational setting.
