Where creativity leads
At the Sundance School, we set the stage for the perfect collaboration between the arts and academics, where creativity takes the lead, supported by an ensemble of diverse disciplines.
Here, every school day is a new adventure! When you walk through our halls and peek into our classrooms you will find joyful learners excited to engage in hands-on experiences with gifted educators who respect and value the whole child. A premier independent day school for children ages 2 1/2 years through 8th grade, Sundance is conveniently located just five minutes from the Watchung Circle and easily accessible from Routes 22 and 78.
STEAM education, project-based learning, individualized instruction, Spanish classes, and a stimulating arts-integrated curriculum for every child are the foundation of Sundance's dynamic, theme-based approach to education.
