Leonard Goldberg
Founder/Head of School

Leonard Goldberg started his career in education as a bilingual special education teacher in the NYC public school system. His students were often relegated to learn in windowless classrooms located in the basement. Mr. Goldberg would later serve as principal of a residential treatment school in Westchester that served NYC students who were removed from their families and communities due to the inability of local schools to meet their needs. These experiences left Mr. Goldberg with the dream of opening a school that would serve all students within their own community in a supportive setting that utilizes best practices in all areas.
