The Browning School was founded as a college preparatory school for boys in 1888 by John A. Browning. A traditional curriculum helps support boys intellectually, physically, and emotionally from Pre-Primary through Form VI.
The Browning School is a member of Interschool, a consortium of eight private NYC schools: Brearley, Browning, Chapin, Collegiate, Dalton, Nightingale-Bamford, Spence, and Trinity. Interschool offers opportunities for academic sharing, extracurricular participation in the arts, and social activities for boys and girls. Also, Browning often undertakes special programs with schools such as Hewitt, Marymount, and Sacred Heart. The athletic program includes intramural offerings in addition to interscholastic competition in soccer, cross-country, basketball, tennis, track, and baseball. Encore, an after-school program is held for students in Pre-Primary through Grade 6. Student clubs and activities include Amnesty International, Chess Club, Newspaper, Yearbook, Student Council, Community Service, Computer Club, Drama Club, Model UN, Mock Trial, Investment Club, Multicultural Club, Music Club, two foreign language publications (En Avant and La Pantera), and the Literary Magazine.
