Overview
For over 175 years, Transfiguration education has
been a part of the convergence of the many people of different cultures
that have lived, worked and grown up on the Lower East Side. It began
as a free school for immigrant children in 1832, founded by Fr. Felix
Varela. The Kindergarten was founded in 1970 by the Maryknoll Sisters.
They were committed in helping the growing population of mothers entering
the workforce. The legacy and vision of its founders continue to inspire
the mission of the Transfiguration Kindergarten School and the Transfiguration
School.
