Important Announcements

  • Wishing Well Project

    As part of Respect for All Week, the Third Grade wanted to take this opportunity to give back and involve our entire P.S. 59 school community. During the month of February, our goal is for all students in our school to think of four special wishes that they have for someone or something, other than themselves. Along with each of the wishes, we are asking families to donate 25 cents for each wish. 

    After we have collected all of the wishes and donations, we are going to create a wall to display all of our wishes for all to see when they enter P.S. 59. We are also going to take all of the generous donations and donate it to a charity that the Third Grade collaboratively chose together, Kids Against Cancer. We hope that our donations can help make a different in their world!

    School leaders use feedback from the survey to reflect and make improvements to schools and programs. Also, results from the survey used to help measure school quality.
