The last Quality Review for PS 40 found it to be on top of all the issues that were pointed out on the previous years. There is a plan in place for each and every concern and progress is being tracked to make sure that the plan is working. Students, teachers and parents are aware of what this plan is and were a part of the creation of the plan with the Principal. The children of PS 40 have available to them a level of education second to none!

The Administration is new and the teachers work very hard to meet the needs of the students.
