District 24

Sharing its southern border with Brooklyn, District 24 includes the neighborhoods of Glendale, Ridgewood, Elmhurst, Maspeth, Middle Village and Corona, which is home to the New York Hall of Science Museum, a popular field trip destination for district schools. It also encompasses parts of Flushing Meadows Park. School choice is very limited in District 24 and overcrowding has long been a problem as school construction in the 1980s and 1990s failed to keep pace with the growing population of families, including many new immigrants, settling into its neighborhoods.
