Manhattan Schoolhouse is a Reggio Emilia inspired school where every child’s intellectual, emotional, social and moral potential is thoughtfully cultivated in an environment of trust and partnership. We’re big fans of the loving and collaborative atmosphere of the Reggio Emilia approach. Kids are encouraged to use The Hundred Languages, which are methods of expression such as drawing, music and dramatic play.

Every interaction with your child matters to Manhattan Schoolhouse, where kids are free to explore, imagine and create. Manhattan Schoolhouse strives to prepare kids for tomorrow’s world today by generating a safe, respectful and nurturing space for them to feel confident to explore and collaborate with each other.

Dynamic projects are vehicles for learning at Manhattan Schoolhouse, and kids work with open-ended, recyclable materials and various mediums of art. Every classroom has movement activities, music classes and foreign language classes. With a low teacher to student ratio, your kiddo will surely get the attention they need to succeed.
