Welcome to the PS 145 website and to the 2016-2017 school year! The staff at PS 145 is committed to providing your children with an exciting, rigorous learning environment that will lead to their academic, social and emotional growth.
This year our children will continue to have “Breakfast in the Classroom” during first period. The doors will open for arrival at 8:00 AM for line up each morning.
We firmly believe that a home/school partnership is necessary for the success of our students so we ask that you bring your child to school on time every day, attend parent-teacher conferences, monitor your child’s homework, and encourage your child to read every day.
Thank you for your support and commitment to our children!
Sincerely,
Linda Malloy, Principal

We are excited to announce our upcoming “Reading Is My Super Power” Read-a-Thon that will begin on Monday, January 9th, and run through Thursday, February 9th, 2017. The school challenge is 525,600 minutes. Our school goal is PARTICIPATION - to get all students reading daily and excited about reading! Help your child find an assortment of genres, choose a topic as a family to read about, create a cozy reading corner in your house, take a family trip to the library, use our digital library MyOn (see your child’s teacher for login information) – so many ways to make reading fun! Any and all minutes count. You child can do silent reading, read to someone, or have someone read to them. The read-a-thon focuses on the amount of time a student is engaged in a reading activity.
The reading logs will be turned-in every Monday. The goal is to read at least 30 minutes a day for all 30 days. Challenge your child to increase their reading minutes each day! Please accurately time reading. No guessing or rounding! Please be honest so that it will be fair and fun for everyone.
To celebrate our reading participation accomplishment, we are going to have an assembly to recognize all participants. A well-known children author will be the keynote speaker. We are also going to have a Pizza Party on Friday, February 17th, 2017 for the student in each class that reads the most minutes.
Mark your calendars with our special dates, and let the reading begin!!
