About our School

The PS/MS 278 community is dedicated to the success of its students. Our safe and nurturing environment fosters academic, social and personal growth.
 
A standards-based, integrated curriculum sets high expectations for all students while meeting the individual needs of our diverse population. We provide opportunities to explore and experiment through a project-based curriculum in all subject areas.
 
The arts and technology consistently and effectively complement all academic subjects. We welcome a collaborative partnership with our staff, parents and surrounding community. Together we will prepare our children to exceed the challenges of the 21st century.
