We know there’s nothing like being on campus, in a classroom, among our students and faculty and witnessing the BASIS Curriculum first-hand. To deliver that experience, we are thrilled to provide a look inside the BASIS Independent Manhattan Upper School (serving grades 6-12). During the summer, while many people travel and the building undergoes improvements and upgrades, we are pleased to offer the next best thing with this virtual video tour.

You will see that the facilities and unique spaces represent a vibrant culture and a learning environment driven by curiosity and passion. For some context behind the visuals, students consistently emphasize the supportive and collaborative nature of our school. When asked about the community, they mentioned that every teacher knows each student, and the student body has a close-knit familiarity. The sense of camaraderie creates a nurturing environment where everyone feels connected and valued.

Please watch the tour to step inside our 40,000-square-foot campus, which also includes a 12,000-square-foot rooftop. The tour also takes viewers to Chelsea Piers, which is conveniently located across from campus and where we have P.E. classes, sports programs, and various special events.

If you have any questions after viewing the virtual tour, please contact our admissions team at manhattan-admissions@basisindependent.com or sign up for our interest list for more information.
