Letter from Interim Acting Principal Mrs. Caputo
October 6, 2026
Dear P.S. 230 Staff and Families,
It is with tremendous gratitude and a deep sense of responsibility that I introduce myself as the interim acting principal of P.S. 230, the Doris L. Cohen School.
P.S. 230 has been my professional home for 24 years. I began my career here as a classroom teacher and later served as a social studies teacher, MTSS coach, and most recently, assistant principal. In each role, I have had the privilege of working with generations of students, families, and colleagues who have made this school such a special place.
Before looking ahead, I would like to thank Principal Della Ragione for her leadership and commitment to P.S. 230. We wish her all the best as she begins this new chapter at her new school. They are fortunate to have her, and we are grateful for all she has contributed to our school community.
As I step into this role, my priorities remain grounded in what has always mattered most to me: our children, our staff, and our families. I believe every child deserves to be known, supported, challenged, and given every opportunity to succeed. Our staff deserves clear expectations, meaningful support, and opportunities to grow, while our families are essential partners in everything we do.
I am grateful and honored to lead the school where I have spent my entire educational career. I will continue to be visible, approachable, and collaborative, keeping teaching, learning, and our students' well-being at the center of our work.
P.S. 230 has always been more than a school to me. It is a community I am incredibly proud to be part of, and I look forward to what we will accomplish together in this next chapter.
Thank you for your continued partnership, trust, and commitment to our students. It is truly an honor to serve as your interim acting principal.
With gratitude,
Jennifer Caputo
