Welcome to P177Q, the Robin Sue Ward School for Exceptional Children, located in Fresh Meadows Queens. We are a beacon of inclusivity and excellence in special education. We embrace a holistic approach to education, addressing the unique needs of each student and extending a continuum of care from middle school through age 22. We provide a diverse range of self- contained special education classroom settings, including 12:1:1, 8:1:1, 6:1:1. 

Our commitment to family-friendly engagement extends to work opportunities within the school and the community, fostering practical and functional skills. As part of District 75, we take pride in offering specialized programs including Culinary and Horticulture, all while enriching the educational journey for every exceptional learner in our care. Fostering early development to providing transition support into adulthood, our commitment is unwavering. Join us in creating a nurturing community where growth knows no bounds, and every step toward independence is celebrated. 

Our school is dedicated to providing a tailored and supportive learning environment for students with special needs. We believe in unlocking the unique potential of every child, fostering growth, and creating a warm, collaborative atmosphere where education extends beyond the classroom.
