School overview

PS 44 Marcus Garvey

How PS 44 is governed, funded, and planning for students. Part of NYC Geographic District 13.

Who makes school-level plans?

School-level planning is public; current SLT records are not.

PS 44 is a New York City Public Schools elementary school in Geographic District 13. Its School Leadership Team is the school-level body that helps develop the Comprehensive Educational Plan, while NYCPS sets the school funding framework. The school site invites families to SLT meetings, but currently gives dates as TBD and says agendas and minutes are coming soon.

Governing system

PS 44 is part of NYC Public Schools and is identified as 13K044 in the school-specific plan and finance records.

School Leadership Team

The 2025-26 CEP says the SLT develops goals, monitors implementation, and aligns school-based resources with the plan.

Public record gap

The official PTA/SLT page says meetings are open and monthly, but it lists dates as TBD and says minutes and agendas are coming soon.

The lack of current minutes on the site does not show that the SLT is not meeting; it shows that the school has not posted current meeting records in the sources reviewed.
