Who are we?
Coney Island Prep Lower Elementary School blends joy, rigor, and high expectations to ensure our 320 scholars in K-2 are ready to succeed. With two teachers in every classroom, smaller teacher to student ratios help accelerate learning and allow for tailored instruction for each scholar. We leverage a research-backed approach to teach the science of reading and focus heavily on phonics instruction, word recognition, vocabulary, background knowledge and comprehension skills, to cultivate our young learners’ strong reading abilities from the moment they step into our building.
Commitment to Anti-racism, Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice
Coney Island Prep is committed to building a team that collectively reflects the various backgrounds, experiences, and identities of our scholars.

We want to ensure that all candidates, regardless of their identity, are able to demonstrate their qualifications and are not limited by a lack of opportunity or access. We are committed to creating a space where everyone’s identity is acknowledged, respected, and welcomed.
