P.S. 095 The Gravesend

Zoned continuation school with K-8 service. Zoned entry does not always translate into an open middle-school seat for late movers.

P.S./I.S. 95 is a culturally diverse school in the heart of Gravesend, Brooklyn. Our mission is to provide a safe and nurturing environment where every student is encouraged to be a lifelong learner. All students are exposed to an integrated curriculum which focuses on academics as well as social and emotional needs. As a Leader in Me partnership school, the entire school community strives to develop and support leadership qualities within our students. Students are offered a variety of courses in core subject areas, as well as the arts (visual arts, chorus, instrumental music, and dance) and our innovative STEM program providing all middle school students with engineering, coding, and robotics courses. We also offer three advanced Regents courses for students who are accepted into our EAGLE Honors Program. Students in grades six through eight have the experience of middle school in a smaller environment where all staff knows each individual child. Our free afterschool program in partnership with NIA offers students an opportunity to participate in various teams including basketball, soccer, and volleyball. Additional programs include Model United Nations Debate Team, CASA Arts Mural program, and free test prep offerings for the Specialized High School Assessment Test, Regents Test Prep, and SOAR Academy for State Exam preparation.
