P.S. 164 is a unique school community committed to high expectations for the academic achievement, social development, and personal growth of each of our students. We strive to motivate all students with our love for learning and by always having the highest expectations for them. We embrace diversity by nurturing strengths and talents to educate the whole child socially, emotionally, academically, culturally and artistically through differentiation in all facets of learning. We value our parent community and are dedicated to developing a strong partnership between home and school. Through distributive leadership, collaboration and communication, each staff member feels supported and encouraged to take risks, share ideas and become an active participant in their own learning. Our professional development program provides ongoing learning and leadership opportunities for all members, while offering students the tools to become lifelong learners and leaders of the future.
