P.S. 939

Students and teachers celebrating Flag Day.

Our Mission

Our students will become culturally and civically responsible. They will be aware of the needs of their own communities. They will also understand the needs of the many diverse communities that make up our society. This awareness will be developed through a rich and rigorous curriculum. In the process of creating an equitable learning environment, students will acquire the knowledge they need. They will build the right attitude and skills to understand their own emotions. They will learn to manage their emotions and empathize with others. This will help them cultivate and maintain positive relationships with peers.  Our mission is to prepare students of all backgrounds and abilities to be engaged global citizens through community and self-expression.

The Painted Cloud: All of Us

Thank you, Sarah and Julian, for this amazing partnership.

This 40-foot-long mural contains 7 graphs, which provide a snapshot of the P.S. 939 community.

In Spring 2025, The Painted Cloud led a multidisciplinary, community-rooted Family Engagement project with the K–4 students of PS 939 and their families.

The project emphasized connection—between students, caregivers, and the broader school community, and aligned with PS 939’s mission: to prepare students of all backgrounds and abilities to be engaged global citizens through community and self-expression.

The project was completed over 3 family engagement workshops to create a video + song, mural, and animated logo” – The Painted Cloud
