Welcome

Children are our Focus


"A school isn’t good enough until it is good enough for our own children. In fact it is not only that it must be good enough for our own children, but it must be the dream school we want for our own children." H. Levin Professor of Economics-Standford

On behalf of the entire P.140K staff, I would like to welcome you to the 2008-2009 school year. We are committed to providing a quality education to your children and we consider the worth and value of each child, and strive to meet his or her individual needs. Our curriculum and instructional practice build skills and thinking strategies that will empower students to be independent and successful throughout their lives.

Just as important as building a strong academic foundation is the formation and strengthening of good citizenship. Students are encouraged to be responsible and be fully engaged in their own learning.

If you have never visited P.140K in person, then it is my hope that through this website you are able to gain an insight to our school and the individuals who make it the strong and dynamic learning community that it is. P.140K is a very special place. We are comprised of a group of individuals who share a common belief. We believe that effective schools are built around relationships and interactions among individuals focused on learning. Our goal is to equip our students with the fundamentals necessary to be successful, while fostering the capability to utilize 21st Century tools to enhance their learning.

Again, welcome to P.140K. We look forward to a challenging and exciting year working with you as partners in you child’s education.
