Make Connections. Get Inspired. Exchange Ideas.

During each visit, visitors will have the chance to experience the school and its vision at large while also exploring a particular focus area. Past focus areas include: "Closing the Creativity Gap," "Infusing Character Education," "Supporting Teacher Development & Retention" and "Using Traditions to Build School Culture."

Testimonials

"The Blue Ribbon School Study Tour at PS 203Q was a well-coordinated event. It was a truly rewarding and enriching experience. There is a wealth of best practices occurring at the PS 203Q and the sense of collaborative responsibility and accountability can been witnessed throughout the building. I have a lot of notes and pictures to share." – Sandra Cover, PS 282

"NYC Collaborates' School Study Tours were the highlight of my December—and I'm still mulling over the insights and ideas I pulled from the visits. In addition to just being a great exposure to really interesting work, they were incredibly well-organized, perfectly executed, and beautifully targeted." – Former NYC DOE Principal
