Zoned continuation school with K-8 service. Zoned entry does not always translate into an open middle-school seat for late movers.
PS 232Q is a PreK-8 school, and we provide a curriculum that educates the whole child - academically, socially, and creatively. We are presently educating 951 students in a PreK-8 building, and we are proud of the fact that we are "PS 232", not "PS/MS 232"! We are not two separate schools; we have our own distinct culture of a K-8, all one family under one roof! Our standards-based science program is designed to use inquiry and discovery in an interdisciplinary curriculum, dedicating a hands-on science teacher in grades 2 through 8. Technology is used throughout our school as a tool for building and analyzing a deep content base and applying it in innovative ways. We value our partnerships with Midori & Friends Inc., Studio in a School, and ArtsPower. We have recently been recognized by the New York State Education Department as a RECOGNITION SCHOOL for high academic achievement in student growth and graduation rate. We have earned special recognition for our students in eighth grade who 100% passed the 2018-19 Regents in Earth Science and Integrated Algebra I and 83% passed the 2018-19 Spanish Proficiency Exam. We have a very supportive PTA who provides yearly activities and events for all of our students!
