PS2Q Attendance Update: Let’s Finish Strong!

As we enter the final stretch of the school year, we want to keep the momentum going. Last year, PS2Q proudly ended the year with a 93% attendance rate—meaning an average of 501 out of our 539 students were present each day. With the current citywide attendance rate at 91%, we are proud to be exceeding that benchmark. Now, let’s aim even higher. Together, we can finish the 2026 school year at 94% attendance or more. Every school day matters, and every student’s presence truly makes a difference. Thank you for partnering with us to support strong attendance for all our students.

Thank You,

PS2Q Attendance Team

Websites to help with keyboard and typing skills

Typing is an essential skill for students to develop as part of their academic growth. In our classrooms, we are actively working with keyboards to help build these important skills. If you would like to support your child in practicing typing at home, we have provided some helpful links below.

BEARS Lead the Way at PS2

PS2 is excited to launch our new core values: BEARS Lead the Way — Brave, Engaged, Accountable, Respectful, and Supportive. These values guide how our students learn, grow, and work together each day.

A detailed letter is attached for families with all the information about BEARS and how we will use these values throughout the school year. We encourage all families to read it.
