Principal's Message

“Children are not things to be molded, but are people to be unfolded…” 

P.S. 171Q, the Magnet School of the Arts, is there to help our children unfold. We believe that each one of our children possesses a unique quality that adds to the beauty of our school. 

​

This school year, our focus will be on working together, as a family community, and embarking on a new beginning, brought on by the many changes we have faced and persevered through, together. Our students will be offered opportunities to support their learning, to support them emotionally and to support their aspirations to learn. We are confident that their love of learning will come from their teacher’s energy and love of teaching. We are there to prepare our students for a strong voice in the world. 

​

Working together, we will provide the best for our children and our community.  

With respect and love,  

Laura Kavourias 

Principal
