Name: PS 295
Description: PS 295 (http://www.ps295.org) located at 330 18th Street in Brooklyn, is a community that embraces diversity by nurturing strengths and talents to educate the whole child socially, academically, culturally and artistically through differentiation in all facets of learning. In recognizing that all children learn in different ways, the school believes that an arts integrated curriculum cultivates a more meaningful discovery of self, enhances prior knowledge, supports content and language development, and encourages a strong respect and appreciation for the arts. The school’s strong professional development program provides ongoing learning and leadership opportunities for all members, while helping students become lifelong learners and leaders of the future.
