Dear Parents and Children:                                                  

Welcome to the P.S. 203 Website. Our school provides an educational environment that is extremely academic, highly creative, dedicated to the arts, and implicitly child-centered.

The cooperative spirit is at the heart of P.S. 203 where a warm and nurturing climate is fostered. Skills and lifelong interests are explored and developed through an interdisciplinary process that is literature based and embraces the whole-language philosophy, while emphasizing skills acquisition.

Special events and experiences at our school include:

**** Author Studies and Reception
**** An Independent Study Program
**** A vital music program, incorporating vocal concerts, recorder instruction, and a Suzuki Violin Program
**** A Physical Education Program, culminating on Field Day and our Dance Festival
**** A Drama Program, featuring class plays and a Drama Club
**** A newly acquired state of the art Computer Lab
**** A Library Program, which emphasizes creativity development
**** The Constitution Works Program
IIM Enrichment Program
**** An impressive ESL Program
**** A Hands-on-Science Program, featuring the Science and Technology Program developed by the Smithsonian Institution
