About Our School

Choosing the right elementary school for your child involves considering many things: whether the educational program will cultivate your child's growth as a scholar, whether the culture and environment will support your child's evolution as an individual, and whether the school is a safe, friendly and supportive community of which you want to be an active part.  Manhattan Charter School is a small, personal, public charter school, open to students living in New York and free to attend.

We deliver rigorous, standards driven instruction and foster a culture of high expectations.
