THE WEEK
Week of September 30, 2024
This week's photo features our 2024 - 2025 School Leadership Team. The School Leadership Team plays a significant role in creating a structure for school-based decision making and shaping the path to a collaborative school culture. The School Leadership Team functions as the management team of the school, representing the educational community. It oversees the planning and restructuring process to ensure our children are provided with quality education through increased teacher and parent participation. The Team is composed of an 18 member core team which is made up of the Principal, UFT Chapter Leader and the PTA President. The remaining members consist of equal numbers of parents and staff.
Our School Leadership Team meets monthly during the school day to discuss issues which are important to the school.

WELCOME
Welcome to P.S. 596X! We are a district 75 New York City Public School serving students on the autism spectrum and other special needs from Pre-K through age 11 in three co-located sites: 11X178, 11X153 and 11X498.
Through this website, you will be able to step into our classrooms and hallways to get an idea of the wide variety of creative programs and practices in which students participate on a daily basis.
Our commitment is to provide the highest quality, state of the art instructional programs to our students, and to offer parents workshops and activities to equip themselves with the skills to best help their child. Through hands-on learning and fun-filled opportunities, our students make tremendous gains in social skills, language, and academics.

BOOK OF THE MONTH
September - October
Our Class is a Family by Shannon Olsen
What is the book of the month?
We have selected books that relate to our ReThink social/emotional curriculum. Bi-monthly, teachers and coaches will collaborate to unpack each book and design lessons, adaptations and resources to support the book’s topics. Our goal is to build on our students’ knowledge and understanding of social emotional concepts through literacy, vocabulary, writing, and discussions!
How can you get involved?
We would really love for the activities we complete at school, to also be reinforced at home. For starters, tune in to hear Principal John read the Book during a special pajama read aloud! You will find resources and activities for the book in the book of the month letter. This includes the targeted vocabulary words, and some fun activities you can do at home or in the community with your child!
