Calling P.S. 360 in
St. Albans a flourishing
school, City Councilman
I. Daneek Miller and
Schools Chancellor
Richard Carranza paid
a year-end visit to the
students, teachers,
administrators and staff
that make up the learning
community at the school.
P.S. 360 currently
serves more than 150
students both Pre-K and
Kindergarten through
Grade 3, 95 percent of
whom are black, and
employs a bilingual
teacher corps that is
motivated by the goal
of enabling its pupils to
speak conversational
Spanish by the time
they graduate.
“Our community is
immensely supportive of
the work being performed
by the Chancellor’s team
Pre-K programs.
P.S. 360 achieved a
milestone in its young
history this past spring
when every student in
the school’s inaugural
third grade class passed
Day One of both the
State Mathematics
and English Language
Arts examinations.
“As the 2018-19 school
year comes to a close,
we are grateful to our
teachers and staff who
are raising the bar and
improving outcomes
for our students, and
to the families and
community members in
Southeast Queens who
are working hand-inhand
with us to advance
equity and excellence
for every student,”
Carranza said.
