Tour the Preschool
Located on the Upper West Side, our Preschool has been architecturally designed for students with special needs. Calming colors, sensory tiles and dimmed lighting make for an educational setting that limits distractions and nurtures growth and independence.
Manhattan Star Academy's preschool supports children with special needs ages 3 to 5 years. We offer a full range of therapeutic services including Speech, Occupational, Physical Therapies and Counseling services. Our play-based/language-based curriculums support our students with global developmental delays in a supportive and nurturing environment.
