PS 31 is finally getting improvements to its auditorium.

Last week, Councilman Paul Vallone announced that the Bayside school is getting new chairs, new flooring and a renovation auditorium as part of a $145,000 investment.

Nearly $100,000 had already been allocated by the councilman. That brings the grand total to $245,000 to the school.

“The kids at PS 31 are great and are very involved, so it’s exciting to be able to share such good news,” Vallone said. “Their faces lit up with joy as we announced that they would be getting a brand new auditorium.”

PS 31 Principal Terri Graybow said the school is looking forward to using the auditorium for many activities and events.

“The auditorium is where parents come to watch their students perform,” Graybow said. “It’s where our entire student body comes together, where we do our graduations and right now there are so many broken seats.”
