Child-Centered, Project Based Learning.

We know from research and from real life experience that learning is social, learning is practical, learning is developmental, and learners are diverse. Our CPSC children are amazing and deserve an education that centers who they are as unique learners.

Through our Child-Centered Project Based approach, we recognize and include the uniqueness of each child. We create a Joyful learning environment that integrates Integrated Arts, Outdoor Learning, and Social Emotional Learning. We are designed for All Learners and we Partner with Families to empower student passions to build not just knowledge and understanding but a love for learning.

As Executive Director of Central Park School for Children, former Middle School Director, and parent of one current and one alumni student, I have experienced the power of CPSC’s mission and goals for children across our K-8 school. Our outstanding teachers, classmates, and their families have been part of an extended family – empowering and nurturing my own children’s brilliance and love for learning.

I encourage you to explore and discover how Central Park School for Children can nurture your child’s learning as well, in extension of your family’s values and beliefs, so that your children and all children thrive.
