Backpack Kid visits P.S. 208K
Students at P.S. 208K Elsa Ebeling School had a surprise, when the "Backpack Kid," surprised them each with backpacks full of new supplies.
These were given courtesy of the foundation, "Blue Sky." It was a wonderful way to start off the new school year.
We Won! PS208K Won!
PS 208K was the winner of Councilmember Jumaane Williams' Participatory Budgeting Competition held in 2018. Our winning projects this year were an I.E.P. Sensory Lab, and a computer Lab upgrade. The total dollar amount was $350,000. One of the key highlights of this year's vote, was the fact that the voting age was reduced to 11 years. So many of our grade 5 students were able to vote, and were able to present an incredible legacy gift to the future students of P.S.208K. Thank You Grade 5 students. You were incredible!≥…
