About

The Browning School is a K-12 all-boys independent day school on the Upper East Side of Manhattan, founded in 1888 by John A. Browning as a private tutor to the Rockefeller family. The school enrolls roughly 400 boys and is known for small class sizes, a family-feel community, and a traditional liberal-arts college-preparatory curriculum. Upper School students take Advanced Placement and advanced-topics courses, and athletics compete in the Ivy Preparatory School League. Browning is a member of ISAAGNY and accredited by NYSAIS.
