We are conveniently located off the 1 train at 238th St. Our school is surrounded by parks and playgrounds galore. We are minutes from the gorgeous Van Courtland Park. We follow New York City's Department of Education's inclusion guidelines.
According to the New York City Department of Education, Inclusive Education has been defined as a shared value that promotes a single system of education dedicated to ensuring that all students are empowered to become competent and contributing citizens in an integrated changing and diverse society. (Steve Kukic, Former Director of At-Risk and Special Services, Utah State Department of Education). The Individuals with Disabilities Act (2004) supports serving students with disabilities in the Least Restrictive Environment. For our students with disabilities, this means being included in general education classrooms learning alongside their typically developing peers.
