Welcome to PS 9—Naples Street Elementary School
It gives me great pleasure to invite you to join our new school community! As an experienced educator as well as the mom of three little boys, I am committed to creating the kind of place where children will grow and thrive. My vision for PS 9 begins with three goals for every child who enters our doors. I want them to be:
- Safe—physically as well as emotionally. In our environment, they will have the confidence to take risks, try new things and discover a new world of ideas and opportunities.
- Smart—with a true love of learning. We will help them learn to read with real understanding, write intelligently, solve problems, think critically, ask the right questions—and find their own answers.
- Social—as valued members of our community. Children at PS 9 will make real friends, understand respect, show kindness, embrace diversity and build strong relationships with those around them.
I hope you will make PS 9 a part of your family’s life, as your child becomes part of our lives.
Thank you,
Deanna Marco, Proposed Principal
PS 9—Naples Street Elementary School
