About P.S. 211Q

Welcome to the P.S. 211 Elm Tree Family!
 
At P.S. 211 Elm Tree Elementary School, we believe that clear communication along with our parent’s involvement within our school community is key to our student’s success. With this in mind, our goal is to utilize the many digital tools (such as our school website) to constantly stay in contact with our parents while also keeping them informed of all that goes on within our school on a day-to-day basis. 

We want our parents to have everything they need to be active participants in their child’s education, which is why we have redesigned our school website to provide our parents with the information and resources that they need to achieve this goal. Everything that our parents need to know about our school and how to ensure your child's success is transparent on our website.

February 12th - March 12th, 2025- Congratulations P.S. 211Q Class 405! Their PSA Poster Can Be Found Throughout Queens, NY!

Dear Elm Tree Community,

Class 405 chose to focus on the dangers of secondhand smoke, particularly its impact on children. Through their research, they discovered that smoking or vaping in New York City parks and playgrounds is illegal. Inspired by this finding, they launched their campaign!

As part of their efforts, the students interviewed Jean Silva of the Flushing Meadows-Corona Park Conservancy, who provided valuable insights into the prevalence and risks of smoking in public parks.

Ultimately, Class 405 designed a PSA poster that will be displayed on LinkNYC screens throughout Queens for 30 days, thanks to a sponsorship from Council Member Francisco Moya.


We are so proud of their advocacy and commitment to making our community healthier!

Our students are unique individuals with diverse learning styles who are socially and emotionally responsive. They are challenged with rigorous curricula and supported as they become our future leaders of tomorrow. Our students are problem solvers, collaborators, and inventors. They think critically and ask questions as they develop a love for learning that will enable them to adapt to change and persevere through challenges.
 
As the 21st Century continues to evolve, we are committed to enhancing, improving, engaging and stimulating a learning environment that is accessible for all students.
 
Through the dedication of our school staff, the support of our parents, and the partnerships we create within our community, our students will leave us as culturally and linguistically diverse individuals that are prepared for their future. Elm Tree Elementary School believes that planning for success in the future means working together today.
 
 
Vision:
Our vision at Elm Tree Elementary School is that through collaborative partnerships with students, parents, teachers and the local community, we will support one another, adapt to new challenges and plan, learn and grow stronger together.
