Tribeca Prep

Tribeca Preparatory School is an independent special education school in Lower Manhattan serving preschool (ages 2-5) and elementary (K-5) students. The school specializes in providing individualized education for neurodiverse children, including those with autism, developmental disabilities, and learning differences. Using a "whole-child" approach, the program focuses on preparing students for less restrictive environments by building both academic and social-emotional skills.

The school's curriculum integrates evidence-based strategies, such as the structure of Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA), with essential therapeutic services including speech, occupational, and physical therapy. To meet each child's unique needs, Tribeca Prep utilizes a data-driven approach and provides necessary accommodations, behavioral support plans, and small class sizes. Beyond core academics, students engage in a well-rounded curriculum featuring music, technology, sports, and specialized swim classes through a partnership with Asphalt Green.

Tribeca Prep operates on a 12-month program designed to foster intrinsic motivation and a love for learning. While tuition is paid privately, families may seek tuition reimbursement through the Department of Education via an impartial hearing.
