We Take Public
Education Personally

From December 1st - December 5th, PS 161 is proud to host the Scholastic Book Fair in our Library. For easiest access, families can set up an "e-wallet" so students can shop without the fear of accidentally losing their money. Visit here for more information: https://bookfairs.scholastic.com/bf/psarthurasheschool

Please join us on Thursday November 20th at 5pm for a PTA meeting and Potluck dinner to celebrate the season.
