Kindergarten & Pre-K Info Sessions (In Person)

The New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE) is proposing to expand Hunters Point Elementary School (P.S. 384) from a kindergarten (K)-5 to a K-8 school, beginning in the 2026-2027 school year. Additionally, NYCDOE is proposing to re-site grades K-3 and pre-K of P.S. 384 from building Q375 (Q375) to new building Q341 (Q341) where it will be co-located with a new site of existing District 75 school, P.S. Q004 (75Q004), to be called P004Q@Q341, in the 2027-2028 school year.

Q341 is a new school building under construction at 1-50 54th Avenue, Queens, New York 11101, also in District 30 approximately 0.3 miles from Q375. The School Construction Authority anticipates construction to be completed before the beginning of the 2027-2028 school year.

A re-siting means that part or all of a school will be moved to a different building than the building in which the school or part of the school was previously located. A co-location means that two or more school organizations are located in the same building and may share common spaces, such as auditoriums, cafeterias, gymnasiums, and libraries. This proposal must be voted on and approved by Panel for Educational Policy (PEP) prior to implementation.

If this proposal is approved by the PEP, what does this mean for my child(ren)?
• In the 2026-2027 school year, P.S. 384 will phase in sixth grade in Q375. In the 2027-2028 school year, P.S. 384 will serve grades 4-7 in Q375 and grades K-3 in Q341 where they will be co-located with the newly opened P004Q@Q341. Additionally, P.S. 384’s pre-K is expected to be served in Q341 beginning in the 2027-2028 school year. In the 2028-2029 school year, P.S. 384 will serve its full K-8 grade span, with grades 4-8 housed in Q375 and grades K-3 and pre-K housed in Q341, alongside P004Q@Q341.

• NYCDOE does not anticipate that this proposal will impact enrollment, admissions, academic, or extracurricular programming at P.S. 384 in the current school year. Beginning in September 2026, P.S. 384 will offer academic and extracurricular programming to middle school students. The proposed expansion will result in increased enrollment at P.S. 384, which will increase academic offerings and extracurricular activities for all students.

• At the middle school level, P.S. 384 will admit students through the middle school admissions process. The school will be open to residents of New York City and will give priority to current fifth grade students enrolled in the school.

• Some P.S. 384 students, staff, and administrative personnel may need to travel during the day from Q375 to Q341 or from Q341 to Q375 for school-wide events or other special activities. Appropriate adult supervision will be provided to any students requiring accompaniment, as determined by P.S. 384 leadership, to walk between Q375 and Q341.

• P004Q@Q341 will open in Q341 in the 2027-2028 school year, serving approximately 48-96 elementary school students across eight special class sections. P004Q@Q341 will serve District 75 students in grades K-5 who have a classification of autism, intellectual disability, or multiple
disabilities on their Individualized Education Programs.

• P004Q@Q341 and P.S. 384 will be co-located in Q341, which means these schools will share common spaces, such as the gymnatorium, cafeteria, and library.
