About this school

Zoned continuation school with K-8 service. Zoned entry does not always translate into an open middle-school seat for late movers.

At PS/IS 178, we establish an environment that encourages communication, collaboration, and inclusion where every community member is an active contributor to the school's success. We create a haven where students are empowered and recognized for their unique abilities. Our school's core values are deeply rooted in 4E's; Equity, Empathy, Excellence, and Exploratory learning. All members of our school community are guided by these core values and are committed to creating learning experiences that embody them while balancing each student's academic and social emotional needs. We are an all-inclusive school where staff, parents, guardians, and students find this "family-like" environment they are a part of to be remarkable. Differentiated instruction and acceleration take place across all PK-8th grade classes on a daily basis. There are a plethora of after school programs, enrichment, and clubs to choose from as we advocate for the arts, school sports, and curiosity. Our Student Council sponsors community service projects and collaborates on school initiatives. We believe that every child has a gift and it is our shared responsibility as educators to identify what that is, nourish it, and tap into it to build other skills.
