New York, NY — Little Scholars, the award-winning network of high-end preschools founded by Nick Kats and Mariana Korsunsky , proudly announces the opening of its newest location in Manhattan’s Flatiron neighborhood — marking a milestone in the brand’s continued mission to redefine early childhood education in New York City.
Located just steps from Madison Square Park, Little Scholars Flatiron combines the brand’s signature warmth and world-class programming with an elevated, design-forward environment built for city families who value excellence, creativity, and emotional intelligence in early education.
“Flatiron has long been at the intersection of innovation, community, and culture — everything we stand for at Little Scholars,” said Nick Kats , Founder and CEO. “This new school represents more than expansion; it’s our commitment to creating a home away from home for families who expect the very best for their children.”

Our vision is to create a place where children’s curiosity and confidence grow every single day.”
