While over 3,500 students of color entered school with the guidance of Early Steps, it is humbling to know that the impact has been so much greater. We hear time and © 2012 Victoria Jackson Photography again how families, schools and lives have been trans- formed as a result of the doors of opportunity that were opened with the help of Early Steps. Doors where academic excellence is the norm and children learn and play with others whose life’s experiences are not the same as theirs, benefitting all children. We are proud of our 30-year partnership with now over 50 New York City independent schools who nurture, educate and challenge our children to be the best that they can be. They couldn’t be in better hands! Tonight we honor four Early Steps alumni. These accomplished young adults all benefited from the wisdom of their parents who knew the importance of providing their children with the best possible education beginning in Kindergarten.

  • After School & Music School
    After School & Music School Winter Trimester 2018 After School and Music School • 1 General Information More than a century ago, Maria Montessori noted children are naturals at building and are quite good at creative design as well. It is with this knowledge, and in keeping with a key theme in our school curriculum, that we unveil the new winter after school program. Included, but not limited to this idea, is Ms. Milton’s STEAM Builders; Caedmon mom Clare Tattersall’s Sewing Tech; Code Advantage’s Kodu Plus; and Science/ Art Fusion from Intellectual Kids Club. At Caedmon, we encourage children to build and move at the same time. Nothing does this better than the array of dance classes this winter. These include Jazz/Hip Hop, World Dance Party, Dance Fitness, and Ballet Dancing. Other classes that will keep the children moving are Swimming, Fencing, Junior Gymnastics, Sword Class I and II, Yoga/Pilates Plus, Circus Yoga, and more. Classes taught by Caedmon teachers again comprise almost half of our offerings. Fans of Mr. Storti, Ms. Vrazel, Ms. Milton, Coach Trotter, Ms. Kilbane, Ms. Messing, Ms. Flatow, Ms. Festa, Mr. McNerney, Mr. Dimmick, Ms. Schneider, and Ms. McCafferty have the unique pleasure of their time, creativity, and engagement in the post-3:30 hours. Hats off to these terrific teachers. Caedmon After School classes are 40, 60 or 80 minutes in length with dismissal times at 4:20, 4:40 or 5:00. Check the class listing carefully so you or your child’s caretaker knows when the class ends. Any child not picked up 10 minutes beyond the end of class is automatically brought to Extended Day and will be charged the Extended Day rate.
