Students participate in music, performing arts, visual arts, community service groups and other activities that stimulate them creatively and socially. The community collaborates to foster a positive environment in which students can learn and grow. Unique offerings include visits from Staten Island Zoo staff, who bring animals on-site for educational programs.
