REASONS TO BE PROUD

The 2023-24 School Year Begins!

PS1 kicked off its 52nd year with joy and anticipation. New Head of School, Susannah Wolf, welcomed students and families to the new school year under a cascade of celebratory bubbles. The day before, all Youngers and new students visited campus for Make New Friends Day to meet their teachers and classmates.

Celebrating the Class of 2023!

PS1 celebrated the Class of 2023 under the Oak Tree with each student delivering a speech to family, friends, and the wider community. Each student was also honored with Moving Up Day words written by their classmates. It was a wonderful reflection of their time at PS1 and a joyful celebration of their accomplishments.

Olders Perform Shakespeare Under The Oak Tree

Students in both Olders classes (grades 5&6) performed Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream under the Oak Tree this week. To prepare, students were immersed in the life and times of Shakespeare. Upon being given their parts, students rehearsed entire acts and specific scenes as they grew into their roles. The culmination was two brilliant productions of the play on our campus. 

 

Camping Trip Creates Lasting Memories!

The All-School Camping Trip is a highlight of the year and longstanding PS1 tradition. This year, we were able to camp overnight once again and we welcomed the team from WOLF (Wilderness Outdoor Leadership Foundation) to partner with us. Students participated in hikes and outdoor science throughout each day, ate meals together, camped in tents, and celebrated with joyous songs and skits around the evening campfire.
