Welcome to Public School #2

Principal's Message

Dedicated Staff, Parents, and Students

As we look forward to a new school year, I would like to welcome everyone back to our second home, Public School Number Two.  It is with excitement and anticipation that we enter into 2012-2013, our 41st year.

We intend to carry on the Number Two tradition of providing an outstanding, well-rounded education to all of our students.  As part of our dedicated and experienced staff, I know that we will work together to continue to assist our children in developing the skills that are necessary for them to succeed.  The Public School Two team recognizes that each student has unique capabilities and learning styles.  Therefore, our teachers strive to accommodate all of our students by creating a positive and challenging learning environment.

As we undertake the challenges of a new year, I encourage our staff and parents alike to maintain the goals and objectives in ensuring that each and every student reaches his or her full potential by utilizing all of the resources that we have available here at P.S. Two.  For example, our state of the art media center as well as a variety of programs that we offer to our student population to help build the foundation for high student achievement.  Our support team consisting of but not limited to our Nurse, School Social Worker, and Child Study Team will also help meet the expectations of the community and its diverse population.

One of our proudest and most memorable experiences at School Two occurred last January when former President Bill Clinton visited us as part of the “Alliance for a Healthier Generation”.

As principal of Public School Number Two and on behalf of the entire school administration, I welcome you back and look forward to working together to maintain our legacy of Dolphins’ excellence.

Sincerely,

Bernard Abbadessa, Principal
