Hello Long Island City! Opening our doors in this community marks a new chapter in our commitment to expand quality education to families in New York City. We have spent the past year building an amazing new facility for children that includes a state-of-the-art indoor activity room. Each classroom is designed with lighting, decor and furnishings that optimizes children’s learning.

Bathroom in each classroom. Two floors of amazing classrooms for children to explore. We are one block away from the Hunter’s Point South Park. We are excited to be a PreK for All and 3K for All.
