Application Process & Tours

NYC families can apply online to New York City Public Schools from 3K to high school.

Get started by creating an account on the NYC MySchools website. Then explore your children’s personalized school options and get guidance on the admissions process from start to finish.

When you apply, you can find PS 10 Brooklyn in one of two ways:

• Enter your residential address and if you are already zoned for our school, it will appear at the top of your list of available choices.
• If you live in a different area and are zoned for another school, you can search for our school code 15K010.
• New families can check their zone using the “Find a School” search tool on the home page on the Department of Education’s website: schools.nyc.gov.. If you are zoned for PS 10 with students in Grades 1–5, you can contact the school at (718) 965-1190 for assistance to register.

Please go to the DOE website’s Enrollment page to learn more about Pre-K, K and Grade 1-5 admissions.

Each four and five-year-old New York City resident is guaranteed a seat in a public school Pre-K and Kindergarten program. Children start pre-K in the September of the calendar year they turn four and Kindergarten the year they turn five. See below for key dates by grade level.

We welcome all of the following to apply to PS 10: current students at DOE public schools, Pre-K Centers, NYC Early Education Centers, charter schools, and private and parochial schools; students with disabilities; students with accessibility needs; students learning English; students in temporary housing; and LGBTQ and gender nonconforming students.

You can submit your Pre-K and Kindergarten application one of three ways:

• Online with MySchools in English, Spanish, Chinese, Bengali, Russian, Arabic, Urdu, Haitian Creole, Korean, or French.
• By phone at 718-935-2009. If you are applying by phone, interpretation services are available in more than 200 languages.
• By visiting a Family Welcome Center. To learn more, please visit our Family Welcome Center webpage.

Pre-K and Kindergarten admissions are not first come, first served—all applications submitted online, by phone, or in person by the deadline will be treated the same based on admissions priorities.

Please note that our Pre-K spots are very limited and will fill in accordance with the DOE’s admissions priorities for zoned schools. For more information about admissions priorities, please go to the Department of Education website and scroll to “Learn How Children Get Offers.”
