PS 11 Programs

P.S.11 is a school where every child has the ability to reach his/her true potential within a diverse
community of learners. As each student brings his/her unique strengths and challenges our
teachers strive to teach in a variety of ways to tap into those strengths.
We fully understand that one size does not fit all. Keeping this in mind our philosophy and
culture support a standards-based education that is challenging and focused on the individual
learner.
We believe that children need to understand the importance and consequences of their choices.
We therefore carefully guide our students to become actively involved in their social growth
teaching them to be responsible for themselves and respectful of others.
As a diverse learning community including Collaborative Team Teaching (CTT) English
Language Learners (ELL) Special Education and Gifted & Talented (G&T) programs our
mission is to provide each child with the opportunity to participate in a balanced literacy
approach to reading and a hands-on approach to math. We strongly believe in instruction that is
assessment driven and requires children to be actively engaged in their own education.
We understand the importance of demonstrating not demanding what children need to do to
become successful learners. This facility is authorized to administer over-the-counter topical ointments only
