Castle Point

I am so delighted with my experience at PS 3, it is a neighborhood community school that values the children and their learning as top priority. I have been an educator myself and being in this school building is a delight! The children are learning, the smiles and joy in the building is high, and the PTA adds a lift that makes it all shine! I'm so proud of the hard work this school is doing!!!

My child came to PS11 as G&T after attending a different public school the year before. I have been amazed at the community feel, the opportunities for children (and parents) and the way that each faculty member truly respects each student as a learner. I am currently unemployed so I availed myself as a parent volunteer for the fall festival and as a volunteer art teacher for the Young Artists 8-week program. My child is also on the PS11 chess team. I was added to WhatsApp groups for each of these and one for all of the parents in our class. One Friday each month, parents are invited to come to the child's classroom for 30 minutes at drop off to see what they are working on. The school has a library, a playground, a garden, and chickens! Our other school had none of those things. This is truly a place where it is exciting to learn. Our teacher sends slides of lesson themes each week on ClassDojo to keep us parents informed. I couldn't ask for a better learning environment.

PS 33 Chelsea Prep provides a welcoming and supportive learning environment for students and families. The school offers a strong sense of community, with staff members who are dedicated to helping students succeed both academically and personally. Throughout the school, there is a positive atmosphere that encourages student growth, engagement, and respect. Teachers and staff work hard to create meaningful learning experiences while also supporting students' social and emotional development. The school also values family involvement and community partnerships, helping to create opportunities and resources that benefit students beyond the classroom. Programs and activities throughout the year contribute to a well-rounded educational experience. Overall, PS 33 Chelsea Prep is a caring and student-centered school that strives to provide a safe, inclusive, and supportive environment where students can learn, grow, and reach their potential.
