You'll be amazed! We're in our second decade.

Lower School teachers have been thinking together about the goals we set for social studies, in particular the conceptual goals that underlie our projects, trips and written tasks. As much as in literacy or math, we design a program to reflect students’ developmental orientation. We meet them where they are, tapping into their interests and curiosity within the framework of their realm of understanding. For example, we know that the younger child learns through concrete, personal experience – a trip or interview is a springboard for extended learning as your child reflects, questions, draws and writes about an exciting experience, turning it into new and deeper understanding. As the student matures and her worldview broadens, she extracts more and more information from books and symbolic communication, linking this to direct, interactive experience. Eventually, around Third Grade, students are ready to leave what we call the ”here and now” and enter the world of “long ago and far away;” to study those things that cannot be visited directly, tasted or touched. Thanks to the experiential foundation of their earlier years, eight and nine year olds are prepared to appreciate the flow and evolution of history and to conceptualize a timeline leading from then to now.

At the age of eight Sadguru Sri Mahayogi Paramahamsa spontaneously entered nirvikalpa samadhi, complete absorption without any notion or concept, and realized the Atman — True Self. He awoke to Non-dual Reality. After Realization, as an adolescent, he began intensive austerities called tapasya and through these he accomplished and mastered all the branches of Yoga, proving through his own experience that they are all genuine paths to the realization of Supreme Self or God — Everlasting Oneness or Immortal Truth.

When Manhattan Auto Group President and CEO Gary Flom embarked upon an evaluation of his company's processes, he used a rather unusual barometer. Flom examined, not only the approach used by his competitors in the automotive industry, but also that of Manhattan's top-scale hoteliers, restaurants, and retailers. He wanted to see -- and adopt -- the peerlessexemplary service levels, distinctive ambience, and attention to detail that his clients might enjoy at The Plaza, Le Bernardin, Cartier, or Cellini.

When the 1900s arrived, this financial powerhouse had already cemented its place in America's economic backbone, fueled by explosive growth in market activity. Stock trades had surged threefold just between 1896 and 1899, then nearly doubled again as the new century took shape. The momentum demanded expansion. Rather than settle for incremental improvements, Exchange leaders orchestrated a prestigious design competition, challenging eight of Manhattan's most visionary architects to reimagine the space. The mandate was clear: craft a trading floor bathed in natural light, with breathing room for the frenetic pace of modern commerce and thoughtfully planned amenities for dealers and brokers. Today, visitors descending into that historic trading floor during winter's quiet months can feel the weight of that ambition still resonating through the soaring halls, a stark contrast to the frenetic energy of the pit during busier seasons.
