Rain didn’t stop parents from attending the Friday morning ribbon cutting at PS 46 Alley Pond in Oakland Gardens, where the school celebrated its new building extension.

The new addition is the result of support from Grodenchik, New York City School Construction Authority President and Chief Executive Officer Lorraine Grillo, U.S. Rep. Grace Meng (D-Flushing), State Sen. Toby Ann Stavisky (D-Flushing), and Assemblywoman Nily Rozic (D-Flushing). PS 46 Principal Stamo Karalazarides requested the expansion to accommodate the growing student body.
“This project alleviates overcrowding at PS 46 so that the school can continue to provide a premier educational experience to students,” Grodenchik said. “PS 46 is a 2020 National Blue Ribbon school, one of the best in the city. With additional space, the school will surely reach new heights of excellence.”
