Early Childhood at Manny Cantor Center is an inspired, responsive, diverse, progressive preschool serving children 6 months – UPK. Our school was built on the principles that all children are competent, capable, and curious; all families have something to contribute; and we are stronger together. Our pioneering blended-funding model incorporates Head Start, Early Head Start, Universal Pre-K, and tuition funding to serve all families on the Lower East Side and beyond. Believing that our diversity is our greatest strength, we are one of the only programs of its kind in the country.
Inspired by the schools of Reggio Emilia, our classrooms are joyful and nurturing learning environments that foster inquiry, exploration, and reflection. With the support and supervision of our Associate Directors of Education, our teachers work collaboratively with children to co-construct a curriculum that draws inspiration from children’s interests and the world around us.
