Owl Blog Post for February 26th

Dear Families,​

It is hard to believe that we will be welcoming March next week.  At this time last year, we could not have imagined what the next 12 months would have looked like.  Thank you for weathering them with us.  The strength and resilience of our community never ceases to amaze us.  Here’s to the brighter days of the approaching spring.

Please be reminded that Parent Teacher Conferences will take place on Thursday, March 4th.  In-person B group students will have early dismissal on Thursday at 11:30.  Be sure to keep an eye out for conference sign-ups with your child’s teacher(s).  As was our practice in the fall, conferences will be used to discuss progress thus far and report cards will follow at the end of the month.  A benefit of this shift from our usual practice is the additional time that is offered for students between parent meetings and report cards to submit missing work or assessments, as well as the additional time for skill development.  Report cards are available through your child’s NYCSA account.

Pre-Kindergarten Registration Update:
We are writing to share the exciting news that the 3-K and pre-K applications for fall 2021 are now open! 

The application process is not first come, first served, and all applications received by the deadline will be treated equally. Families with children born in 2017 can apply to pre-K by the April 7 deadline, and families with children born in 2018 can apply to 3-K by the April 30 deadline. 

Families can apply online at MySchools.nyc, or over the phone by calling 718-935-2009. Translation and interpretation services are available through both application pathways. Families can visit nyc.gov/3K and nyc.gov/prek for more information.
