We strive to empower students to examine themselves honestly, to recognize their
strengths and to acknowledge ways in which they need to grow. We include them in arriving at
decisions, which entails making them aware that they have options in the process of reaching goals that
they themselves validate. We make certain they know that they are heard and cared about and valued,
that they are safe to be themselves. We avoid comparing students to each other or creating a sense that
one person or group is somehow more acceptable than another. We promote a sense of acceptance.
Soundview is a carefully structured school with high academic and behavioral expectations but with a
relaxed, congenial atmosphere, a quality made possible by an unusual commitment to minimizing,
rather than stressing, a sense of competition among our students. While we recognize that students
proceed from here into a world in which they must compete effectively, we are convinced that nurture
is a crucial ingredient in building a successful competitor.
Our college preparatory program offers challenges for the most advanced students while ensuring that
those who need help receive it. A wide array of extra-curricular activities offers ample opportunities for
students to develop their talents and explore their leadership abilities. Soundview’s athletic program
includes teams for soccer, basketball and Ultimate Frisbee
