STUDENT LIFE
At P.S. 189M, success isn’t just an option—it’s the only option. We provide the right balance of rigor and support to help every student succeed with grade-level standards. Our unique, inquiry-based approach builds self-confidence, nurtures creativity and expression, and develops the critical 21st Century Skills students will need for success in high school, college and career. This approach has paid off through strong growth on state achievement testing and scores that put us above the district average. We support student success through:
-
A whole-child approach that meets the academic, social and emotional needs of each child
-
Data-driven decisions that use formative assessment to tailor instruction to individual needs
-
A positive learning environment to build self-esteem and confidence
-
Research-based instructional practices and a rigorous academic curriculum
-
A culture of teamwork and collaboration among teachers, students and parents
