In District 3, from 59th to 123rd Street on Manhattan’s West Side, there are several magnet schools for early childhood development and on through high school.

| Museum Magnet School |
One of those schools is the Museum Magnet School, or PS 191, located at 210 West 61st Street. In this unique learning environment children from pre-kindergarten through eighth grade are encouraged to learn in ways which parallel the museum process: exploration, experimentation, explanation and exhibiting are the methodology of the learning environment.
Fundamental to the school’s operation is its close connection to some of the greatest museums in the world. Children here are able to learn from experts, receiving in-depth and guided instruction in their studies. Using the latest modern, cutting-edge learning technologies together with the fundamental and traditional museum institution, children at the MMS receive an incomparable and inspirational education.
