Schnur's photos, on display starting Tuesday night, "document a year in the life of a single kindergarten class at Heathcote School in Scarsdale," the photographer said in an announcement.

"For a year I have been granted rare access to the classroom and came away enthralled by the exuberance, humor, intelligence and beauty of my 19 five-year-old subjects," he said. "Something miraculous takes place in our classrooms daily, but few get to witness it. I was extremely privileged to do so."
