PS 58 The Carroll School

We are a community elementary school with classes in grades Pre-Kindergarten through five. In 2007, we celebrated our 50^th Anniversary. Some of our current students are children or grandchildren of former students. We are a diverse community with families from all socio-economic groups. Our school also includes families who have recently joined us from around the globe: Europe, Central & South America, Asia and Australia. We value the involvement of our families—students and parents—who together with our staff shape the heart and soul of our community.

In 2007, we introduced a Dual Language French/English Program which includes two classes in Kindergarten through Fourth Grade and will be offered from Kindergarten to Fifth grades in the fall of 2012. Our Technology Committee, comprised of staff and parents, has outfitted our computer lab, library and classrooms with state of the art equipment. Student community service initiatives include Pollution Patrol, overseeing school-wide recycling, a computer Tech Squad, Reading Buddies, and the Penny Harvest philanthropic roundtable.
