Park Children’s Day School educates young children in a stimulating and joyful environment in a landmarked school building across the street from Central Park on Manhattan’s Upper West Side.

Our mission remains the same since the founding of the non-sectarian school 59 years ago: to enroll children from diverse racial, economic and religious backgrounds and teach them respect and cooperation within the school community of students, teachers, staff and families. Moral and ethical values are fostered in a warm and nurturing environment. Park Children’s Day School emphasizes courtesy and acceptance of others while encouraging each child’s self-esteem.
