Pre-K & Kindergarten
(3-6 Years)
12/2: Both Homestead campuses will be open on time. Eldred, Liberty, Livingston Manor, and Roscoe are on 2-hour delays.
The Homestead School was founded in 1978 by Pete and Marsha Comstock on the family’s 125-year-old homestead. The school recently celebrated its 40th anniversary and has grown from serving 8 preschool-age students to over 200 students PreK through High School.
Our mission is to nurture self-motivated students whose love of learning will carry through into a lifetime of responsible and constructive contributions to the well-being of their fellow humans and the Earth.
The teachers at the Homestead School are highly qualified educators often with professional experiences outside of education (e.g., award-winning author, biologist, architect, and more) and, therefore, can contribute unique talents and skills. Many of our staff have spent extended periods of time in different parts of the world and bring their unique experiences back to our campus.
The Homestead School consists of two campuses. The Homestead Primary School Campus is nestled on an 85-acre permaculture homestead in the beautiful and pristine Upper Delaware River Valley of the Catskill Mountains in Upstate New York. Our second campus, the Homestead Collaborative College Campus, serves students from seventh through twelfth grade and is also located in the Catskills, in Hurleyville New York.
