THE CHILDREN'S WORKSHOP SCHOOL

The Children's Workshop School is a progressive public elementary school located in the East Village of Manhattan... The creation of CWS, along with its sister schools (Neighborhood School, East Village Community School, Earth School and Tompkins Square Middle School) sparked interest from families throughout New York City and has contributed to their return to District 1. This is evidenced by our growing waiting lists, the number of families who have visited our schools as part of the choice process, and the increase in our student population every year. Our growth, however, has not hindered our commitment to maintaining a small progressive school, whose students possess a full range of racial, linguistic, and cultural heritages; income levels, and learning abilities. The population and staff of the school is growing, and because of strong parental involvement, we have been able to add many enrichment programs including music, dance, yoga and movement classes school-wide, a library..
