About Peterboro Street Elementary


PSES is located in the heart of the village and houses Pre-K, kindergarten and first grade. We offer four half-day Pre-K sessions. Kindergarten is a full-day program and we currently have five sections. We have six sections of first grade this year. Our combined population is right around 275 students.

We are very fortunate to have wonderful students, a caring and dedicated professional staff and supportive parents who work together to create a positive learning community. We are also thankful for our very active and generous Canastota PTA that provides countless resources and opportunities for our P-3 population. We strive to create safe, comfortable teaching and learning environments where children feel they belong and where academic, social and emotional needs can be addressed.

Our Building Mission Statement:
We, the staff & students at PSES and SSES, will work together to create a positive and caring school community through our words and actions. We will encourage each other to be safe, respectful, responsible and ready to learn everyday.

Expectations at PSES & SSES:

Our Shared K-6 Vision Statement:

We work in a partnership with our parents and community to create a learning place where students are empowered to achieve their maximum potential and become lifelong learners.
