A Cedar Hill Prep School education spans the length of childhood which provides the foundational skills for higher learning. While embracing the individual and allowing the child to lead and discover, students at Cedar Hill Prep School are also given opportunities to assume authentic leadership roles and develop an age-appropriate sophistication that is not commonly found in K-8 environments. We are a warm, down-to-earth, respectful community. We value children as leaders and view parents as partners throughout this momentous and endearing journey toward adolescence.
No. Cedar Hill Prep School is secular, but attractive to families of all faiths, since “Inclusion is the mantra.”
Time and again, we are told by the receiving High Schools that Cedar Hill Prep School students are confident, articulate, and poised. Their stellar performances at these schools have made our current students very desirable and establish a great pipeline for the future.
Twice a year, parents engage in parent-teacher conferences with their child’s homeroom teacher. In addition, in-depth report cards are mailed out three times a year, detailing each child’s progress based on a number of competencies, skills, characteristics, and practices. Teachers are also frequently in touch with families via email and phone calls, and parents are welcome to request appointments to discuss their child’s progress as necessary.
Cedar Hill Prep School’s Eighth-grade Graduates are accepted into and attend some of the most prominent independent day/boarding and public high schools in NJ. Our Founder partners with families of graduating students to see that each child is placed into a school that best suits his or her social intelligence and learning style
Cedar Hill Prep School believes that students transition well when they have been given a solid educational foundation which includes broad extracurricular activities and opportunities to participate in inter-school activities. In addition, the School has established a great reputation among peers and among schools that receive Cedar Hill Prep students. Most of our students start with Honor level courses in the freshman or sophomore levels at these selective high schools. Many take up leadership roles in these schools. We’ve built strong relationships with these high schools over the years, and Directors’ of Admission are extremely impressed with candidates from Cedar Hill Prep School.
Yes. We are a Fully-Accredited & SEVIS Certified school with I-20 Visa authorization to recruit international students.
Many parents are taken in by the physical facilities of the school and seldom ask if their child will have access to the amenities. It is important to ask the school if the facilities will be used by the elementary or middle school students.
The most common mistakes parents make during their search is to get their hearts set on certain schools based on name recognition, being with friends, or because of cost alone. A school search is successful when it discovers the school that is right for the child. Many parents do not visit schools that might be perfect for their child because they believe it may be inadequate or intimidating. You never know until you ask!
Like each child, each school has unique qualities. We would like you to seek the “best school for your child.” The search requires keen insight and honest assessment regarding a child’s strengths, needs, and preferences. All parents want their child to live and learn in an environment of high expectations and effectiveness.

When considering a school, it’s essential to ask the right questions to ensure the best fit for your child.

Our son attended Cedar Hill Prep until 2nd grade and then later he came back to CHP to complete his middle school. CHP under Ms. Nan Menon’s and Mr. Seeley’s leadership has provided our son with a nurturing environment to learn and grow. CHP develops curious minds and provides the resources to develop these curious minds. Classes at CHP are small and the education is personal. The teachers know their students and can tailor their efforts to individual student needs. Our son has been successful in his new high school, due in part, to the foundation built through his education at CHP. CHP provides a high-quality education in a supportive environment, preparing students for a successful future.

The Kindergarten program at Cedar Hill Prep School provided a great educational experience for my daughter. The curriculum is very thorough and prepares students for success that is above and beyond average kindergarten programs. My daughter looks forward to coming to school each day and actually enjoys doing homework! She recently received an award for academic excellence as a result of all the great work that is taught at Cedar Hill Prep! I am a proud CHP parent and look forward to the continued growth that I know my daughter will have at this wonderful school!

Academic excellence at an affordable price! Personal attention to kids and great club offerings like debate and robotics! Exposure to regional and national level competitions. My kids have been “lifers” at Cedar Hill Prep where they have found a “family” away from home. They don’t want to miss even one day of school! Go CHP….!!

We are a family who values equality and tries to stress the value of being humble to our children. We were worried that private school may encourage our daughter to feel otherwise. That concern has been eliminated in our time at CHP. The focus is on the students and how they can grow to be happy, healthy, and productive members of society in the future. This goal is shared by the parents, administration, and faculty. At every event, the director, Mrs. Nan, and the principal, Mr. Seeley, speak of such values and have such pride in their students and their school. I have seen them very involved in the daily operations of the school. They know each of their students and their families. In addition, there is no tolerance for bullying or discrimination here. CHP is extremely diverse, and every holiday, cultural celebration, and ethnicity is celebrated and welcomed with open arms. My daughter has learned so much about our country, its people, as well as different cultures around the world… and I am very grateful for that. Once again, a great balance has been achieved here.

The Jayasuriya Family

One of the many many things I LOVE about CHP is the atmosphere of K-8. The older students foster friendships with the younger students and they encourage each other. The younger students love going to support the older students in sports and debate and the bees. The house system that is followed at CHP is fantastic. It promotes a sense of family and belonging. I cannot say enough about how much we love the K-8/house system at CHP.

Parent of Fourth Grader

Thank you for the wonderful graduation ceremony that also included those who couldn’t attend in person. Though we were unable to attend, we greatly appreciate your work and efforts to give the students a memorable sendoff to high school. Through this difficult year, CHP has remained a beacon of stability and continuity for our children. Your work in maintaining an intensive level of the school experience is groundbreaking and commendable. No other school that we’ve heard of has achieved this level of immersive virtual education that gives children as near an in-class experience as possible without missing a single day of school. Thanks to your leadership, thorough planning, and thoughtful execution, our children were able to learn and thrive even in this disruption. Your infectious (!) enthusiasm boosted everyone’s motivation and morale. The efforts of the teachers and staff in the success of this academic year have been equally remarkable and essential. We are proud to be part of the CHP community, and we look forward to another great year!
