P141K@PS 380

P141K @P380 has students in grades PreK-5 with students in 8:1:2, 12:1:4 and 6:1:1 ratios. The site is our school’s largest program with 16 classes. The site has a community garden, which allows for an outdoor learning space during our summer school Chapter 683 program.

At this site, our outdoor garden has three raised beds where our community grows lemon balm, mint, and stevia to package tea with our students. We also grow basil and tomatoes and use the ingredients to share healthy snacks at our school and family events. We have a focus on healthy eating and look for opportunities to share new recipes and encourage our community to have fun trying new things to eat.

In addition to gardening and healthy eating, we have a focus on social-emotional learning and have been incorporating yoga and meditation for our students during their morning meetings. We also have a partnership with Materials for the Arts (MFTA), and students have different times throughout the year to make their own instruments, participate in sing-alongs, and produce their own art work through watercolors and the study of plants to share in our school's art galleries and online celebrations.
