PS 72 SCHOOL GOALS
Goal setting is annual ritual at PS 72. Goal setting is a multi-tiered effort beginning with students setting academic goals, and continues in classes and on grades. Each year we must set school-wide goals that are a part of our School-wide Comprehensive Educational Plan, or SCEP. The students, staff and School Leadership Team all contributed in drafting these goals. These goals are available for download below. They are organized by each goal as it stated on the SCEP, in more friendly terms, intended outcomes and action plan. We encourage you to discuss these goals with your children and staff members. Thank you for your continued support.
