I am thrilled to introduce myself as PS 185's Interim Acting Principal. I have spent 25 years with New York City Public Schools, most recently serving as Assistant Principal at PS 164, since 2017. I've thoroughly enjoyed being a part of District 20 and am excited to join all of you on this new adventure.

In all my years of service, I have remained steadfastly committed to fostering safe, inclusive, and academically challenging school environments. I believe that every child can excel when provided with rigorous instruction, compassionate support, and a welcoming school culture. I have enjoyed meeting many of you thus far and look forward to continuing to develop meaningful connection in support of the students, families, faculty, and community, of PS 185. If you would like to reach me my email address is jfeuers@schools.nyc.gov.

Best,

Jan Shperling

Principal, IA
