Welcome to Q300!  

We are one of NYC’s K-8 citywide public schools for Gifted and Talented students. Our Lower Division houses our Kindergarten through 4th grade students while our 5th through 8th grade students are at our Upper DIvision. Our divisions are co-located in two separate buildings, but our community is united in a common goal.  

Ever since our school’s inception in 2014, we have demonstrated a commitment to providing the best education possible for our wonderful students. As we approach our 7th year, we have been working collaboratively as a community to ensure that our instructional practices and efforts align with our goals of creating a culture of excellence, designing and assigning rigorous tasks, while at the same time fostering a genuine love of learning. These goals are embedded in our school’s core values:  Inclusion, Inquiry, and Responsibility. As we use the national standards for gifted students as a guide to educating our students, teachers create robust curriculum that engage students in inquiry and project based learning throughout each subject area.

Our teachers are extremely dedicated and passionate about their students and subjects they teach. I am honored to be a part of such a gifted and distinguished faculty. Our diverse staff encompasses their own academic successes, has commitment to our vision, and are able to exercise creativity in order to foster critical thinking and overall growth in our students.  

We currently have students from four of the five boroughs attending Q300. Our families build relationships and connect socially across grades. Our PTA does a wonderful job connecting families and bringing our Q300 community closer together through fundraisers and school-wide events. Their efforts contribute to many of the possible opportunities that our students receive at Q300.

Q300 is committed to developing students who are lifelong learners and leaders of tomorrow. I encourage you to take a moment to browse our website to find all Q300 has to offer.

Sincerely,

Sonita Ramkishun
