North Country School (NCS) and Camp Treetops (CTT) sit in the heart of the mountains in the six-million-acre Adirondack Park. Since 1938, NCS has practiced progressive, hands-on, and place-based learning for boarding and day students in grades 4-9. NCS provides children who come from diverse backgrounds, cultures, and countries with a humanistic education rooted in respect and responsibility for self and others. Our 220-acre campus includes extensive vegetable and flower gardens, a sustainable farm, maple sugaring operation, ski hill, rock climbing crag, and miles of recreational trails, as well as a state-of-the-art performing arts center and teaching/learning kitchen.
