Principal's Message

Dear PS #3 Families, Students, and Staff,

 

It is with great enthusiasm that I welcome you to the 2026–2027 school year! I hope you had a restful, enjoyable summer and are excited to begin another year of learning, growth, and new opportunities.

 

At PS #3, we are committed to providing every child with a safe, supportive, and engaging learning environment where all students are encouraged to reach their full potential. We believe that every student can succeed when we work together as a school community built on respect, collaboration, and high expectations.

This year, we will continue to strengthen our focus on academic excellence while supporting the social and emotional well-being of every student. Our dedicated teachers and staff are committed to providing high-quality instruction, fostering a love of learning, and helping students develop the skills they need to become confident, responsible, and compassionate individuals.

 

Family partnerships remain an essential part of our success. We encourage parents and guardians to stay actively involved in their child's education by maintaining regular communication with teachers, participating in school events, and supporting learning at home. Together, we can ensure that every child has the opportunity to thrive.

As we begin this new school year, let us embrace each day with optimism, determination, and kindness. I am excited to celebrate our students' achievements, overcome challenges together, and continue building a school community where everyone feels welcomed, valued, and inspired.

 

On behalf of our entire staff, welcome back! We look forward to an outstanding 2026–2027 school year filled with learning, growth, and success.

Sincerely,

 

Tara Mantineo            Adriana Rodriguez 
Principal                       Assistant Principal
