Purple Circle is an independent Early Childhood Program located on Manhattan's Upper West Side. Founded in 1972, it is a parent cooperative that values families as integral members of the school community, offering a play-based, interactional approach to learning for infants, toddlers, and children ages 5 months through 6 years.
With a focus on preserving, celebrating, and respecting children's right to play, Purple Circle provides a safe and inclusive classroom environment where children have the opportunity to interact with materials and develop connections with both children and adults. The program emphasizes the partnership between families and teachers, supporting the social, emotional, cognitive, and physical growth of each child through close observation and individualized attention.
