District governance
New York City Geographic District 2 is the governing NCES agency; NYCPS publishes the school budget and district-level services.
School Leadership Team
The school identifies the SLT as its school-based shared decision-making and planning body.
Family organization
The PTA's September 2025 meeting materials show a separate family organization that raises and approves support for school programs and events.
The public SLT page has a 2022-23 schedule and 2023-24 member list, but no current agenda or minutes archive. That does not show the SLT did not meet.
