A letter went home today with simple steps to activate your child’s free NYC Kids RISE scholarship account. This program is completely free and available to Queens students.

NYC Kids RISE automatically provides eligible students with a $100 scholarship deposit completely free to begin saving for future college or career training. Families can choose to add their own savings later if they wish, but there is no requirement to do so.

Please take a moment to review the letter so you can activate your child’s account and access this opportunity. If you have any questions or need help with activation, please reach out to Ms. Trinidad at [email protected] or 718‑728‑1459 ext. 2.

Welcome back, and Happy New Year! I hope your winter break brought rest, joy, and plenty of time with loved ones. We’re excited to see our students return, refreshed and ready for a wonderful year of learning and growth.

Today also marks the end of our second round of Perfect Attendance. Thank you for supporting your children in showing up, staying engaged, and building strong habits that set them up for success.

We’re also kicking off our iReady Race! The class with the highest percentage of students spending over 50 minutes on iReady each week will earn an exciting reward. Encourage your child to stay focused, track their progress, and race to the finish line.

Thank you for your continued partnership. We’re looking forward to an inspiring and productive start to 2026.
