A proposal has been put forward by the New York City Department of Education to open and co-locate in Windsor Terrace an additional site for an existing District 75 school.
The new location would be the eighth co-located site for District 75 School P.S. K053. It would be in the Bishop Ford Educational Complex at 500 19th Street with M.S. 442 Carroll Gardens School for Innovation (15K442, grades 6, 7, 8, SE) in K280 in the 2026-2027 school year.
The building also houses Brooklyn Urban Garden Charter School (15K758, grades, 6, 7, 8) and the District 15 Pre-Kindergarten Center (15K863, pre-K and 3-K).
P053K would serve approximately 48 to 96 students in grades 6, 7, and 8 who have a classification of autism, intellectual disability, or multiple disabilities on their Individualized Education Programs (IEP).
A joint public hearing will be held via teleconference on Monday, November 3rd, at 6:00 p.m., so that community members can share their comments or concerns. To join the teleconference, log in at https://learndoe.org/districtplanning.
