In celebration of World Book Day, we are excited to host a Storybook Character Day at school!
✨ Date: Thursday, April 23rd
✨ What to do: Students are invited to come to school dressed as their favorite book character!

This is a fun way to encourage a love of reading and bring stories to life. Costumes can be simple, creative, and made from items you already have at home—no need to purchase anything special.

We can’t wait to see all of the amazing characters come to life!

📚 The Book Fair is Coming! 📚

We are excited to announce that our School Book Fair will be open from March 23 – March 27! Students will have the opportunity to browse and shop for new books during their scheduled class visit.
Our Book Fair is a great way to inspire a love of reading while supporting our school library. There will be something for every reader!

✨ Last week was filled with holiday magic at PS23! ✨

Our amazing PGC students spread cheer by visiting the Infante PreK building and delivering a special gift to every student from PS23. 💝

We then celebrated our annual gift giving, and thanks to the incredible generosity of our friends and families, we were able to provide gifts for all 700+ of our students—a true community effort that warmed our hearts. 🎁

To end the week on a high note, Ms. Anderson’s Girl Scout troop went above and beyond by purchasing gifts so that each first grader could take home a present for a loved one, reminding us all that the spirit of giving starts with kindness. 💚

From our PS23 family to yours—happy holidays, thank you for your continued support, and see you in 2026! ✨🎉
