  • Your Voice Coounts-Please take the Leader in Me Parent/Guardian Survey TODAY

    Our school is conducting surveys to learn more about key areas of strength and areas of needed growth in our school. In order for us to have a holistic picture of what is going on in our school, we are asking all parents/guardians to participate.

    The parent/guardian survey takes a few minutes to complete and will ask questions about your child and about his or her experience in our school. If you have more than one child attending the school, you will be asked to think about the oldest child's experiences as you answer questions related to his or her growth.  

    Please take this survey: https://www.leaderinme.com/s/ps-128-bensonhurst-ny/families

    Please complete the survey by: December 2, 2024

In order for us to have a holistic picture of what is going on in our school, we are asking all parents/guardians to participate.
