Dear PS 14 Families,
Welcome back to another enriching year at PS 14 The Fairview School! This year our school is 108 years young! We have deep connections to Corona, Queens, rich with history and tradition, and now you are a part of our story, also. Welcome to our school!
I have a trivia question for you: Do you know why our school is named “The Fairview School”?
Answer: It’s because we had a view of the World’s Fairs in 1939 and 1964. The ’39 theme was “The World of Tomorrow”, and the ’64 theme was "Peace through Understanding" dedicated to "Man's Achievement on a Shrinking Globe in an Expanding Universe". Our teachers collaborated and planned together at Queens Museum on June 28, 2022. There we explored the museum and reignited our inspiration for innovation, two concepts at the heart of our school’s mission statement.
This year we launch our new focus school theme of “Sustainable STEAM”. STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics. In the sciences, sustainability describes ways to innovate and design systems and products that sustain Earth’s resources to build a better tomorrow for our children and beyond. We are excited to expand on the curricula we have offered recently, adding a one semester course for all students in Engineering as well as continuing our one semester course in Social Emotional Learning. We are also working with Queens Museum to expand our partnership with them so that all students are able to participate in their “artist in residency” program here at PS 14, where students learn that creative thinking can help find innovative solutions to challenging problems.
Now that NY Hall of Science (NYSCI) is reopening again, we look forward to rebuilding our partnership there as well. We will take field trips to NYSCI, and students will learn protocols to think and plan like scientists and mathematicians, skills that will help them later in life no matter what fields they pursue in college and beyond. So buckle in for an exciting journey this year as we investigate the world around us together across all subject areas.
Below are some important items to know about the year ahead, and please reach out to me at hbenson2@schools.nyc.gov or to our amazing Parent Coordinator, Odalis Diaz Robles, at odiazrobles@schools.nyc.gov if you have any questions:
Sincerely,

Estimadas 14 familias de PS,
¡Volvemos a otro año enriquecedor en PS 14 The Fairview School! ¡Este año nuestra escuela tiene 108 años! Tenemos conexiones profundas con Corona, Queens, ricas en historia y tradición, y ahora usted también es parte de nuestra historia. ¡Bienvenido a nuestra escuela!
Tengo una pregunta trivial para ti: ¿Sabes por qué nuestra escuela se llama "The Fairview School"?
Respuesta: Es porque tuvimos una visión de las Ferias Mundiales en 1939 y 1964. El tema del '39 fue "El Mundo del Mañana", y el tema del '64 fue "Paz a través del Entendimiento" dedicado al "Logro del Hombre en un Globo cada vez más pequeño en un Universo en Expansión". Nuestros maestros colaboraron y planificaron juntos en el Museo de Queens el 28 de junio de 2022. Allí exploramos el museo y reavivamos nuestra inspiración para la innovación, dos conceptos en el corazón de la declaración de misión de nuestra escuela.
Este año lanzamos nuestro nuevo tema escolar de enfoque de "STEAM sostenible". STEAM significa Ciencia, Tecnología, Ingeniería, Artes y Matemáticas. En las ciencias, la sostenibilidad describe formas de innovar y diseñar sistemas y productos que sostengan los recursos de la Tierra hacia un mañana mejor para nuestros hijos y más allá. Estamos entusiasmados de construir sobre los planes de estudio que hemos ofrecido recientemente, agregando un curso de un semestre para todos los estudiantes en Ingeniería, así como continuando nuestro curso de un semestre en Aprendizaje Social Emocional. También estamos trabajando con el Museo de Queens para expandir nuestra asociación con ellos para que todos los estudiantes puedan participar en su programa de "artista en residencia" aquí en PS 14, donde los estudiantes aprenden que el pensamiento creativo puede ayudar a encontrar soluciones innovadoras a problemas desafiantes.
Now que NY Hall of Science (NYSCI) está reabriendo de nuevo, esperamos reconstruir nuestraasociación allí también. Haremos excursiones a NYSCI, y los estudiantes aprenderán protocolos para pensar y planificar como científicos y matemáticos, habilidades que los ayudarán más adelante en la vida, sin importar qué campos persigan en la universidad y más allá. Así que abróchense el cinturón para un viaje emocionante este año mientras investigamos el mundo que nos rodea juntos en todas las áreas temáticas.
A continuación se presentan algunos elementos importantes que debe saber sobre el próximo año, y comuníquese conmigo en hbenson2@schools.nyc.gov o con nuestro increíble Coordinador de Padres, Odalis Díaz Robles, en odiazrobles@schools.nyc.gov si tiene alguna pregunta:
Sinceramente

Our School Leadership Team is comprised of parents, teachers, staff members, administrators, and our Beacon representative. Each month we meet to look at data, identify our school goals, and monitor progress for our goals. We dream big! And we are sincerely proud of the work our SLT does together.
This year, our meetings will take place one Thursday each month at 4 pm. As per new regulations, we are asked to run these meetings in person or in a hybrid manner. We opted to run "hybrid" meetings, meaning that some of us will be in person at PS 14, and others will be Zoomed in remotely.
Although only SLT members are permitted by chancellor's regulations to participate verbally in SLT meetings, the public is invited to:
* attend and listen to the meeting as a witness to the conversation
* request in advance to add yourself to the agenda so that you may present any school related topic or question. To request a time to speak at a meeting, please email klaperla@schools.nyc.gov in advance of the meeting you wish to attend. We need 48 hours notice, please.
Our first meeting of this school year is Thursday, September 22, 2022 at 4 pm. You may attend in person (ask the guard to call Ms. La Perla when you arrive), or you may Zoom in at:
