Dear Friends of La Scuola,

It is with an abiding sense of gratitude and pride that we think back on all that La Scuola has accomplished in the past year: with increased enrollment and enhanced facilities, we are excited to celebrate the progress that we have made as we look forward to the bright future ahead. In this spirit, we hope that you will join us to honor our beloved school at our Gala Benefit Dinner at Cipriani 42nd Street on Friday, May 19, 2023. Your participation in this event is fundamental to our success, and so we look forward to seeing you there to celebrate all that we have accomplished through teamwork and shared passion for our school community.

There is something extraordinary that is shared by all those who have a deep and abiding affection for both Italian Culture and New York City. Within the most vibrant, globally-minded city in the world, this gem of a school provides students with an unparalleled, bilingual education. At La Scuola, caring teachers provide our students with the intellectual, social and emotional tools that our Reggio Emilia Program instills in our youngest learners, who look forward to the Liceo Scientifico and International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme at our High School.

You have made your way to this website because you share a love for this educational vision. So let me encourage you to take the next step and join hundreds of La Scuola supporters at our Gala. 

By supporting this Gala, you are supporting our mission. In buying your ticket, or sponsoring a table, you are raising your voice to make it known that Italian language, culture, and history matter to you. 

The celebration won’t be the same without you, so come and join us!

Yours sincerely,

Michael Prater

Head of School, ad interim
