WHO WE ARE

P.S. 316 is a dynamic community school that emphasizes learning through the development of the whole child. Our students represent a diverse community of learners, and our programs emphasize the need to differentiate our curriculum to meet the needs of students.

Our Mission

Our mission is to ensure that children leave P.S. 316 with a set of moral and social emotional values that make the world a better place. We achieve this by encouraging students to be inquisitive, knowledgeable, thoughtful, communicative, principled, open-minded, caring, risk-taking, balanced and reflective. This is accomplished through concept- and standards-based inquiries that incorporate all subject areas. Our students are taught in an environment that shows an appreciation and respect for all cultures and the diversity in our school, community and world.

  • General Education Classes
