School Overview
P.S. 13, also known as the M.L. Lindemeyer School, is a public elementary school located in the Arrochar neighborhood of Staten Island, New York. Serving students from pre-kindergarten through fifth grade, the school is part of the New York City Department of Education’s district structure. It is situated in a primarily residential area, functioning as a neighborhood-focused institution that caters to the local families of the 10305 zip code.

The school is generally recognized for its commitment to providing a foundational academic experience within a traditional classroom setting. Like many schools in the Staten Island district, P.S. 13 emphasizes basic literacy and numeracy skills while fostering a community-oriented environment.
