Dear Parents/Guardians:

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Manhattan School for Career Development and the Manhattan Transition Center, M751. Our goal is to assist and support your child through our four stage instructional program that is designed to maximize each student’s success. We carefully review and implement the Individualized Educational Program created by our dedicated teachers, paraprofessionals, and related service providers.

Our school is constantly revisiting “best instructional methods” for learning and student participation. We are always looking for new work-study sites that will provide our students with positive outcomes and job skills development.

One of the most important objectives is to instill a positive self image and respect for oneself and each other. You can help us with our mission by making certain your child attends school every day and comes to school on time. This will develop levels of responsibilities that will serve your child well with all future endeavors.

If you become our partners and help your child with homework, and instill the need for good attendance, then academic achievement and success in future employment will be guaranteed.

Come and join us for parent workshops, P.T.A. (Parent/Teacher Association) meetings and parent-teacher conferences. Our Parent Coordinator, Ms. Maria Ayala, will keep you informed via newsletters, phone calls, and material your child may bring home.

Working together we can achieve dreams and make them reality.

Sincerely,

Tobias Weissman

Principal
