ELECTED OFFICIALS TO JOIN MEMBERS OF THE 1969 MIRACLE METS FOR SCHOOL NAMING CEREMONY


 Elected officials and the School Construction Authority will join members of the 1969 World Series Champion Miracle Mets for a school naming ceremony in Queens. Attendees will officially dedicate I.S. 419 as the Tommie L. Agee Educational Campus in honor of the legendary Mets outfielder.

 

                        The new state-of-the-art school is one of 11 new school buildings opening in Queens and will serve students in grades 6-8. The 646 new seats will help alleviate overcrowding in District 24 as part of the more than 2,800 new seats created in Queens for the 2022-2023 school year.

 

The building is a fully air-conditioned, accessible five-story school, providing 18 standard classrooms, two district special education classrooms as well as reading and speech resource rooms. The school also includes a District 75 program, which contains eight additional classrooms with dedicated student restrooms, rooms for occupational and physical therapy, a guidance room, and a multi-purpose room.
