The Process

  • In-person and virtual tours are scheduled during Admission seasons. We enjoy the opportunity to welcome you into our school!

  • Applications may be submitted online with MySchools, by phone, or in person at the District 13 Family Welcome Center located at 355 Park Place, Brooklyn, NY 11238.

  • Current 3-K and Pre-K families must submit an application as well to be considered for placement with us for Pre-K and Kindergarten, though current families will have priority in admissions.

  • Please email Principal Micoli at pmicoli@schools.nyc.gov with any questions.

How Children are Placed

Children are considered for placement at PS 270: The Dekalb School from within our school zone, from within District 13, and from other Districts as well (in that order of priority). View our school zone below.
