Staten Island Community Services

Staten Island Community Services, Inc. (sics) was founded in 1946 to service the Community by providing the facility for the Community to gather and participate in events and Services. It later evolved to provide senior Services and a preschool, the south shore toddler academy. There are 120 seniors who are taking advantage of this site daily to connect older adults to vital Community Services that can help them stay healthy and independent. It affords them the opportunity for socializing and interacting with their peers, obtaining nutritional meals and participating in educational programs and various activities. The venue also provides a room to rent for meetings, celebrations and various social gatherings. The south shore toddler academy offers two school programs providing classrooms for both the certified pre-k program offered by the nyc board of education, and a pre-school day care and learning center for nursery school children. Our classrooms are staffed by certified teachers and instructors. This gives working parents the opportunity to leave their children from 2 to 5 years old in a secured, safe and healthy environment. The 2018-2019 board of education quality survey reported that this pre-k location attained 100% satisfaction from parents and families regarding effective school leadership, parent partnership and trust and respect between the educators, students and families. Sics also provides a field that children are utilizing to play little league baseball.
