Our Mission
The students of the Battery Park City School are competent, capable, curious, and caring individuals who discover the unique contributions they will draw upon as they become responsible members of society. Our students are lifelong learners prepared to engage in the work of creating new paradigms for an increasingly inclusive and sustainable world.
To make this vision a reality, we nurture the academic, emotional, social, and physical well-being of each child by building on their intrinsic strengths. The school community works collaboratively, ensuring that each student has a voice and is represented in the curriculum, in order to create an environment of equity and respect for all.

Preparing for this week's news
As a school community, we know that 2020 has capped a number of years of increased tension and strife around social, racial, public health, economic, and political issues. This year’s national elections and the COVID-19 pandemic have amplified these tensions. While we await election results this week, our students will have lots of questions and our teachers will guide conversations based in fact while also helping students to process their feelings.
As I shared at the last PTA meeting and in the email I sent out as a follow up to that meeting, we know that students learn best when they feel safe and recognized. We do this by helping them develop social-emotional learning skills. CASEL, a highly regarded organization dedicated to social-emotional learning (SEL), organizes these key skills into 5 categories.
We know that dialogue and informed citizenry are critical to our democracy. We are so fortunate to live in the United States where we can challenge and question policies and elected officials, to have a range of media to learn from and to have access to a public education that encourages students to ask questions and learn from each other.
1-Self-awareness: How am I personally feeling?
2-Social-awareness: How are others feeling?
3-Self-management: How will I behave now that I know how I am feeling and how others might be feeling?
4-Relationship-building: How will I interact with others based upon what I know about their feelings?
5-Responsible decision-making: What actions will I take to appropriately express my feelings in a way that is also respectful of how others might be feeling?
As we process the news over the next several weeks, the answers to these questions will help our students feel safe in tumultuous times. Our school mission statement affirms we recognize the importance of diversity, equity, and student voice as we prepare students to become responsible members of our society. At 276, each family brings unique cultural insights, political perspectives, and experiences to our community. Despite all this diversity, we all share the value of care and respect for others.
With appreciation for your partnership,
Terri
