The school has 150 students in grades K-5. Children range in age from 5 - 10 years old and go to and from school on foot, by school bus or in their parents' cars. The school has a staff of six teachers, two teacher assistants and a principal. Parents are encouraged to be active in the school as volunteers in the classroom and on field trips. Children attend school Monday to Friday from the beginning of September to the end of June.

While the building itself is not brand new, Blarchmont is a fully equipped, modern education facility with a computer lab, gymnasium and a library inside to go along with a soccer field, baseball diamond and a large playground area outside. The atmosphere on the schoolgrounds is fun and active making it a great place for international students to make friends and practice their English.

The atmosphere in Blarchmont's classrooms is equally fun and active but the focus is on academic learning and personal development. Teachers work to cultivate a classroom culture that encourages communication between the students. Children often work in pairs and groups on projects and enjoy a broad-based curriculum that targets language arts, math and science in addition to art, music and physical education.
