News & Announcements

Spring Recess

Friendly reminder that there is NO SCHOOL next week due to Spring Recess, which will be held from April 14th to April 18th. Classes will resume on April 21st at their usual times.

While we encourage everyone to take full advantage of this break, we also want to remind you that students can keep their learning on track with the iReady platform. There is an ongoing contest, and their activity will be tracked during the break. We invite students to engage with the platform at their convenience.

Additionally, please keep in mind that today is the last day to complete the NYC School Survey. Your feedback is essential in helping us enhance our school community. If you have not filled out the survey yet, we greatly appreciate you taking a moment to do so.

Thank you for your ongoing support. We wish you and your family a safe and enjoyable Spring Recess!
