Administration





                                             



    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
    ****An active Student Organization where children's voices are heard, and
    ****A most supportive Parent-Teacher Association which makes our dreams become realities.

    At P.S.203 we are committed to providing "something for everyone."
