School overview

P.S. 287 Bailey K. Ashford

What the school’s official plan and current NYCPS allocation say about governance, priorities, and funding. Part of NYC Geographic District 13.

How are P.S. 287’s school priorities set?

The public record shows an SLT-backed 2025-26 school plan and a current school-specific allocation, but not a public archive of regular meeting minutes or family updates.

P.S. 287 Bailey K. Ashford is governed by New York City Public Schools in District 13. Its 2025-26 Comprehensive Educational Plan names the principal, staff, parent, Parent Association, Title I parent-advisory, and community representatives who took part in School Leadership Team planning. That plan links school goals and action steps to the school-based budget; NYCPS separately publishes the current school allocation.

School Leadership Team

The 2025-26 plan identifies an SLT chair, principal, UFT representative, Parent Association president, parent members, staff, and community representatives.

Academic priority

The plan set a June 2026 math target to increase students scoring on or above grade level on the i-Ready end-of-year diagnostic from 12 percent to 20 percent.

Family role

As a Title I schoolwide program, the plan says the SLT must consult the Title I Parent Advisory Council on family-engagement funds and the school plan.

Allocation basis

NYCPS Galaxy lists a $3.43 million FY2027 school allocation, including Fair Student Funding, early-childhood funding, Title I, and support categories.

The plan states intended targets and actions, not their final results. The school’s current site directs families to ClassDojo, but its public update pages were not retrievable through the normal official-document path.

Plan term ended; results were not published in the reviewed records

The plan called for professional learning, tutoring, data-informed math instruction, family engagement, and International Baccalaureate-aligned work. Its stated math goal was to raise the share of students on or above grade level on the i-Ready end-of-year diagnostic from 12 percent to 20 percent by June 2026.

Next: A later official progress report or 2026-27 school plan is needed to establish the outcome and next actions.
