Partnerships and Field Labs

Partnerships

CPCS maintains collaborations with a number of community and cultural partners.  Our partnerships offer opportunities for learning inside the classroom and in the community at large. Throughout the school year our partners visit CPCS for onsite instruction as well as offer opportunities for learning outside the classroom through trips and competitions. For example, our students compete regularly in chess competitions throughout NYC and have competed at Nationals.

America Reads

African Dance

For the past five years we have worked with great dance teachers from Brooklyn Academy of Music. They teach students the history of African Dance and expressions through movement.

Ramapo for Children

Every fall our 4th graders go upstate on an overnight trip to Camp Ramapo. Ramapo is a highlight of the 4th grade year and a great opportunity for students to develop self-confidence and grow as a community.
