More information

 

The Brearley School is an all-girls, nondenominational, independent college-preparatory day school founded in October 1884. Brearley's founding Headmaster, Samuel A. Brearley, Jr., graduated from Harvard in 1871 and worked as a private tutor until 1880, when he went to study at Balliol College, Oxford. He came to New York in 1884, when it was commonly thought that intellectual activity "took the bloom from ladies," and opened a school to provide young women with an education comparable to that available to their brothers.
