Our Mission
Our students will become culturally and civically responsible. They will be aware of the needs of their own communities. They will also understand the needs of the many diverse communities that make up our society. This awareness will be developed through a rich and rigorous curriculum. In the process of creating a fair learning environment, students will acquire the knowledge they need. They will build the right attitude and skills to understand their own emotions. They will learn to manage their emotions and empathize with others. This will help them cultivate and keep positive relationships with peers. Our mission is to prepare students of all backgrounds and abilities to be engaged global citizens through community and self-expression.

The Painted Cloud: All of Us
Thank you, Sarah and Julian, for this amazing partnership.
“This 40-foot-long mural contains 7 graphs, which provide a snapshot of the P.S. 939 community.
The Painted Cloud led a multidisciplinary Family Engagement project in Spring 2025. This project was community-rooted. It involved the K–4 students of PS 939 and their families.
The project emphasized connection. It aimed to connect students, caregivers, and the broader school community. This emphasis aligned with PS 939’s mission. The school aims to prepare students of all backgrounds and abilities. They should become engaged global citizens through community and self-expression.
The project was completed over 3 family engagement workshops to create a video + song, mural, and animated logo” – The Painted Cloud
