Welcome to PS 9!

PS 9 is an open choice elementary school with a strong focus on the arts. The PTA at PS 9 is committed to encouraging parents to use their "VOICE" (Vision, Opportunity, Independence, Collaboration, Expression) to create meaningful opportunities for students, staff and families.
As a result, we provide a variety of school, community and family activities that not only engage children and families, but build a community as well.
We look forward to providing our families with many meaningful opportunities throughout the school-year.

Pumpkin Smash 2014

Monday, November 3, 2014

Thank You!

The PTA would like to thank all who were involved in supporting the Pumpkin Smash this weekend. Despite the wind and the rain and the cold, many people ventured out to support PS 9 and the NYC Compost Project as we hosted our first community event. 

We received a lot of positive feedback about the event, which was covered by the Staten Island Advance and NY1. We were even visited by our new Superintendent, Anthony Lodico.
 
For all of you who donated materials or items to sell, donated a raffle basket, volunteered your time at the event, provided chili, or brought your family and friends to the event- your participation and support is a testament to the amazing families and staff we have at PS 9!
