Speyer Media
Though not the full picture of all that happens at Speyer, below you will find our social media links, select videos, and news articles that may offer a bit of insight into what we like to refer to as “the magic of Speyer.” It’s not about casting spells and waving a wand, but rather, Speyer combines the passion of curiosity, the freedom that comes with being with like-minded peers, and teachers that support and encourage determined inquiry to create a rare educational space.

In 2019, Speyer was awarded a Blackboard Award for Outstanding School and founding co-chair Jennifer Selendy offered insight into Speyer’s educational philosophy and our 10-year history in an interview with New York Family magazine.
As part of a group of admissions directors and heads of school from a number of top independent schools, as well as savvy educational consultants, our former Director of Admissions Jackie Sirgo passed along her expert advice to New York Family magazine readers. In the August 2018 issue, she gave her input on the process of choosing the right school, while in the September/October 2018 issue, she offered expert insight into how to help children and parents prepare for school visits.
Our Deputy Head of School Paul Deards was featured in Education Week as he outlined the case for teaching Debate in schools and also had an opinion piece on the importance of gifted education published in the Huffington Post.
