German International School New York

German International School New York (also known as Deutsche Internationale Schule New York, or 'GISNY' for short) is a private, bilingual (German/English) college preparatory school that enrolls over 400 students in grades Pre-K through 12. The School is located in White Plains, New York, approximately 25 miles north of New York City, and is divided into three schools on the same campus: the Lower School, the Middle School and the Upper School.

Many GISNY students are citizens of German-speaking countries. Increasingly, however, the school enrolls a diverse community that includes families from all over the world. Today, over 50% of GISNY students are US citizens or reside in the US permanently.

GISNY is accredited by the New York State Association of Independent Schools (NYSAIS), the Kultusministerkonferenz (Conference of Ministers of Education of Germany) and is a New York non-public Elementary and Secondary School. GISNY is a partner school of the German initiative "Schulen: Partner der Zukunft" and was awarded the title of "excellent foreign school" by the German Bundesverwaltungsamt (BVA) in August 2009 and again in November 2014.
