Our New School

Our students work hard and deserve the very best. As of the 2020-21 school year, our school moved to 21 West 45th Street to a newly remodeled, state-of-the-art campus.

  • New PreK Classes
  • New Computer Lab 
  • State-of-the-Art Media Center 
  • New Playgrounds
  • Bright Classrooms
  • New Chairs and Desks 

Learning by Doing

Our students learn by doing. This type of instruction engages both the left and right sides of the brain, creating better connections and storing more information. Our hands-on learning encourages problem solving and critical thinking, coaxing them to experiment and explore. It is also fun, so our students succeed because they are motivated to learn.
