About the school

PS/IS 119 is a hub of learning, inquiry, collaboration, and exploration that is grounded in educating and supporting the whole child, empowering our students to be agents of change who take ownership of their learning and are seen as partners in dictating the path toward their educational and social-emotional experiences. Our students and school community work in tandem to create a positive atmosphere and environment of excellence that embraces all learners steeped in rigor and culturally and linguistically responsive practices, while supporting 21st century skills to prepare them for a successful transition to high school and toward post-secondary goals. Parents also appreciate that our challenging curricula prepare their children to become college and career ready, while working for our scholars to exemplify core positive characteristics and soft skills to set them up for success. Our mission is to develop programs to include performing arts, accelerated courses, foreign languages and STEAM, while giving our learners the opportunity to feel empowered through their voice, ability to make choice and support in decision making.
