Enrichments at PS/IS 217
​
We can all agree that children only get ONE chance to get a quality education! However, with on-going government funding cuts, each year the school's budget falls short of what the PS/IS 217 administration would like to offer our students.  To contribute, the PTA assumes responsibility for 100% of the cost of enrichment programming offered to students in each grade throughout the year.  

We aim to have 100% participation from our families in the Invest in your Child's Success  drive to help us provide enrichment programs for our students.

Why Enrichments?

Enrichment programs are chosen by the school administration to: 
  • Enhance and extend the curriculum of each grade.
  • Complement developmental and social growth needs of each age group.
  • Promote equality among all students by providing access to programs that lower-income families wouldn't otherwise be able to afford.

Examples of past enrichment programs:

  • Music Together - grades PreK, K
  • Creative Movement- grade 1
  • Hip Hop - grade 2
  • Four Freedoms Park - grades 2, 5, 8
  • African Dance - Grade 3
  • Musical Theater - grade 4​
  • Ballroom Dance - grade 5
  • Salvadori: Building Green - grades 6, 7
  • Theater Games - grades 6, 7, 8
  • Cornell Tech Local Ground Project - Grade 8
