The school is conveniently located in the scenic township of Montclair, New Jersey. Its name was inspired by the clear view of the island of Manhattan where even today, the New York City skyline can be seen from several vantage points. Montclair is a haven for diverse cultures and expressions. Museums, quality restaurants, boutiques, cafes, galleries- all within walking distance form the school's classroom and clinic- proliferate and help make Montclair the perfect location for the Eastern School, a school dedicated to the belief that "Learning to care for others begins in a caring environment."
