Dear Students, Parents/Guardians and School Community,

Welcome to the Manhattan School for Career Development and the Manhattan Transition Center, M751.  We are dedicated to assisting and supporting students through our four stage instructional program designed to maximize each student’s academic, vocational and social/emotional success. We utilize a Person Centered Model while facilitating and implementing the Individualized Educational Program (IEP).   The transition IEP team ensures that students’ strengths, interests and challenges are considered.  

 Our school has expertise in model transition planning. We are an innovative instructional program that provides students with career exploration and vocational training.   We collaborate with students, parents/guardians, school community and agencies to provide students optimal post secondary opportunities. One of the most important objectives is to teach students self determination and to instill mutual respect for others.

 It takes a universe to raise a young person.  Together we can make it happen.  Let’s us all join forces and make the dreams of our students the reality.  

Regards,

Ewa Asterita
