At P.S. 222 we celebrate cultural, ethnic, and academic diversity. We believe that maintaining high expectations for all our students is critical to their success. We believe that respect is paramount in all relationships to foster feelings of safety, justice, and community. This is illustrated in our school motto: Respect yourself, Respect others, and Respect property. We maintain the vision that all children deserve and benefit from an inclusive school community. We are dedicated to the education of the whole child and strive to create an atmosphere in which all students are nurtured socially and emotionally while receiving the support necessary to excel academically. We celebrate that all children bring their own identification, individual talents and learning styles.
At P.S. 222, we incorporate the Next Generation Learning Standards and Habits of Mind into every area of the curriculum in order to foster academic excellence and social awareness in all our students. It is our firm belief that by maintaining academic rigor in a respectful and nurturing environment, with the support of our families, we will help all our children reach their fullest potential.
