School Leadership Team

The SLT is a school steering committee that identifies and discusses issues such as curriculum, school procedures and policies, and future growth. It comprises the principal, the PTA president, a UFT representative, elected parents, and teachers and is governed by bylaws which are reviewed and revised every two years. The SLT meets monthly in working sessions that are open for observation. Parents may request to present a topic or issue to the SLT by contacting their parent representatives.

The Sunset Park Avenues SLT meets each month. To join the SLT meeting Zoom, click here. Learn more about SLTs on the NYC DOE website.
