Dear PS159 Families,

Welcome to another remarkable school year at PS159, where our commitment to academic achievement and equity is at the heart of all we do! As we embark on this journey together, we are excited to embrace new opportunities for growth, learning, and collaboration within our vibrant school community.

At PS159, we believe that every student has unique talents and potential waiting to be nurtured. Our dedicated team is committed to providing an inclusive and equitable learning environment that meets the diverse needs of all our students. We are focused on offering engaging and challenging curricula that not only foster academic excellence but also encourage critical thinking, creativity, and a love of learning.

This year, we are excited to unveil several new initiatives designed to enhance our students’ educational experience. From innovative STEM programs to comprehensive support services, our goal is to ensure that every child has the resources they need to thrive. We are also placing a strong emphasis on social-emotional learning, recognizing that supporting our students holistically is essential for their success.

We understand that the journey toward academic achievement is a collaborative effort. That’s why we invite and encourage families to actively engage in their children’s education. Whether it’s volunteering in the classroom, participating in school events, or simply staying connected with teachers and staff, your involvement plays a vital role in our students' growth and success.

Our commitment to equity extends beyond the classroom. We strive to create a school culture where every student feels valued, respected, and empowered to share their voice. By celebrating our diverse backgrounds and perspectives, we foster an inclusive environment that enriches everyone’s learning experience.

As we move forward, let us work together to inspire our children and cultivate their potential. I am excited about what this year holds for our students and our community. Together, we can make a lasting impact and ensure that every student at PS159 reaches their highest potential.

Thank you for being an integral part of the PS159 family. Let’s make this year a memorable one filled with achievement, growth, and joy!

Warmest regards,

Neffertiti Lee
