Parent Testimonials
I loved this school when my daughter attended it. My daughter was in their Little Hands program, 3k program , summer camp then pre-k. It is the best community school, it gave comforting feeling to know that few of the teachers were also from the Amalgamated coop community. Kids did many science and art projects , were taught alphabet, colors, basic writing and numbers.
