All Saints Episcopal Day School is a co-educational independent school for students from Nursery to 8th grade. The school is located in Hoboken, New Jersey, and occupies two campuses: the Elementary school and Middle schools are located at 707 Washington Street on the corner of 7th and Washington Streets, and the Early Childhood Center, which is located at 527 Clinton St. on the corner of Sixth and Clinton Streets, houses the Nursery, Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten programs. Both campuses boast historic landmark buildings, and include a gymnasium, movement room, library, science lab, art room, assembly space in the church, and private outdoor play yards. There are SMART Boards in all classrooms and networked computers throughout all of the buildings.

The core curriculum consists of language arts, mathematics, science, social studies, physical education, world language and health, as well as special subjects including art, music, dance, drama, computers, and community service. The overall Student–teacher ratio is 5 to 1. All Saints is an IB World School meaning that it is authorized to provide the IB Programme to all of the grade levels the school covers. IB World Schools share a common philosophy – a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education.

Each grade takes 6-10 field trips in New York City and its environs per year. Beginning in the Fifth Grade, students go on a three-day overnight trips to Sprout Creek (Grade 5) and Frost Valley YMCA (Grade 6-7). Eighth Graders participate in an international exchange program with a school in Ecuador, and spend 10 days living with host families in Quito.[2][3]
