New Maker Space
We have a brand new Maker Space complete with a 3D printer, computers, sewing machines, robots, silk screening materials, and all types of manipulatives that students can use to discover and create. A Maker Space provides opportunities for students to bring their imagination to life through exploration and creativity. For example, students can use Maker materials along with coding software to make potatoes play music, build their own simple machines, and design objects that solve real world problems. This creates inquisitive learners who are prepared for college and many different career options. Our new Maker Space has been generously funded by Creative Artists Agency (CAA), and a competitive grant through Lowe's Home Improvement.
Dental Services
We are very excited to announce that we have expanded our partnership with NYU Dental to include full dental services for all of our students right here at PS 15. With your permission, NYU Dental will provide oral exams, x-rays, cleanings, cavity fillings, and more. Parents are welcome to join their child to observe and provide support during appointments. This partnership will ensure that students receive quality dental care while minimizing absences from school. Please keep an eye out for a permission slip and more information.
Book Trust Partnership
PS 15 has partnered with Book Trust to provide students with FREE Scholastic books for their home libraries. Every month, students select books from Scholastic to grow their home libraries! We want all of our students to develop a love of reading and have every opportunity to learn about the world around them and get lost in the imagination and creativity found in books.
