The Mickey Mantle School

This website is run by students in the P811M @ 499 Marketing & Communications class

Welcome to the 2024-2025 School Year!

Welcome back to another exciting school year at P811M The Mickey Mantle School! Families gathered on Saturday, September 14th in the Bronx at the District 75 Back to School Fair. It was a day filled with joy, delicious snacks, and exciting games.

Our students had the opportunity to unleash their creativity at the 811M tent, where they became chefs and crafted "sensory salads" using straws, gel foam shapes, pom poms, and beads. The "sensory salads" are a great fidget tool. It was a fantastic event, and we couldn't be happier with the turnout. Thank you to all the families who joined us—your presence made the day truly special!

Check this site throughout the year for important updates, news, and photos from our sites. We're looking forward to another great year!
