Division Street Elementary School Named a 2024-2026 National PTA School of Excellence

PTA LogoWe are thrilled to announce that Division Street Elementary School has been named a 2024–2026 National PTA School of Excellence, one of only 330 PTAs and schools nationwide to receive this prestigious designation. Division Street Elementary School PTA previously earned this recognition in 2018 and 2021. 

Through the National PTA’s School of Excellence program, PTAs and schools commit to a year-long partnership to strengthen family-school connections. During the 2024–2025 school year, Division Street Elementary School made significant strides in welcoming all families, communicating effectively, supporting student success, advocating for every child, sharing decision-making power, and collaborating with the community.

“We are proud that Division Street Elementary has once again been recognized as a National PTA School of Excellence,” said former PTA Co-President Sarah Nolan-Tice. “We are one of only 24 schools in New York—and just 330 schools across the entire country—to earn this honor. This past year, we placed a strong focus on strengthening communication with our families—sharing updates on activities, educational opportunities, and community events that support our students both and outside of just Division Street. We could not have achieved this without the help of our families and staff. Together, we will continue to make Division Street a place where every student and family feels they belong.” 

Congratulations to Division Street Elementary School PTA on this great achievement. For more information about the National PTA School of Excellence program, visit PTA.org/Excellence.
