OUR SCHOOL
As the Gem of Harlem, P.S. 30M looks to nurture and educate the whole child for an equal opportunity to fulfill their dreams!
Principal’s Message
Dear PS 30M Families,
​
In the eyes of the youth, there are so many possibilities. And, their choices should be infinite. So, we offer a vibrant array of academic subjects and programs for students to succeed.
​
We also pride ourselves on being ready to prepare our students for a digitally savvy world.
​
From our STEM education program using 3D printers to art, PS 30M has something for every student. A safe learning environment where students can build social skills for success at PS 30M and beyond is also important to us.
​
Operating for over 40 years, PS 30M graduated many who have become quite successful, too. We’re proud of our students’ successes and look forward to continuing our work in the years to come.
​
But we cannot do this great work alone. As an important part of a child’s life, make sure you’re actively and positively involved. Supporting a student directly correlates with their success.
​
Join us in our pursuit of excellence for all. Thank you for being part of the PS 30M community!
​
Sincerely,
​
Leonna Austin, Principal
