PS2Q Attendance Update: Let’s Finish Strong!

As we enter the final stretch of the school year, we want to keep the momentum going. Last year, PS2Q proudly ended the year with a 93% attendance rate—meaning an average of 501 out of our 539 students were present each day. With the current citywide attendance rate at 91%, we are proud to be exceeding that benchmark. Now, let’s aim even higher. Together, we can finish the 2026 school year at 94% attendance or more. Every school day matters, and every student’s presence truly makes a difference. Thank you for partnering with us to support strong attendance for all our students.

Thank You,

PS2Q Attendance Team
