About Us
Welcome to P.S. 154
P.S. 154 is a high-performing, whole child and family-focused community school. We believe deeply that children thrive when they are surrounded by caring adults, have a structured learning environment, recognize that there are high expectations in place for them, and have the tools to collaborate, persevere, and think critically. We pride ourselves on preparing children both emotionally and academically to be successful throughout their lives. We work to establish strong foundational habits, strategies, and skills that children can carry with them to middle school, high school, college, and even their adult lives!
