M964 Central Park East II

Public schools shape neighborhoods in ways private ones can't. M964 Central Park East II fits that role on the Upper East Side, offering a standard K-8 curriculum without the frills of tuition-based alternatives. The block at 433 E 100th St, New York, NY 10029 sits just east of the park, a quiet stretch where the grid feels a little more open.

Unlike specialized programs that filter applicants, this institution follows the city’s general admissions process. It doesn’t advertise extras, just the basics: reading, math, science, and the usual slate of elementary and middle school subjects. A call to (212) 860-5992 can confirm details the website might skip.

Finding it is simple if you use directions: map. Not every building here has a marquee, but the address is easy to spot.
