We are proud of the accomplishments of our PKA program! Our dedicated team works collaboratively to create a safe, nurturing environment while maintaining strong connections with families. The quality of our program is reflected in high scores from family surveys, ECERS, and CLASS observations, setting us apart from other programs in the area. You can view our scores on schools.nyc.gov under Pre-K Quality Snapshot.
Our program also serves as a model for other schools—NYCDOE organizes inter-visitations, allowing teachers from across the district to observe our PKA team in action. Many of our PKA students continue at Greek American Institute and seamlessly transition into Kindergarten, building a strong foundation for their educational journey.
