Founded in 1878 by Felix Adler as a free kindergarten of the New York Society for Ethical Culture, this is the Manhattan (Pre-K–5th Grade) division of Ethical Culture Fieldston School. It offers a progressive, experiential, ethics-centered education rooted in 'whole-child' pedagogy attending to intellectual, physical, emotional, and social growth. Ethics is woven through the interdisciplinary curriculum, and children learn through hands-on, project-based inquiry. Nonsectarian and humanistic in origin (the Ethical Culture movement), not religiously affiliated.
