As we envision a challenging as well as a promising future for our alumni, we at P.S.145 Manhattan strive to ingrain in our students a profound and ongoing love of learning and community. We are committed to developing each child’s ability to express him/herself with confidence and competence – verbally, mathematically, socially, scientifically, artistically, and technically. Through the use of inquiry-based instruction, integrated curriculum, multifaceted enrichment opportunities, and strong parent involvement, we encourage all students to exceed the New York State Standards, embrace the diversity of their surroundings, and proceed in the spirit of cooperation and collaboration. At P.S.145 Manhattan, we learn from the past to understand the present and plan for the future.
