Communication
We will be using Operoo as our communication platform this year. Please make sure you have set up an account with an active email and phone number. Please note that all forms (Blue Cards, Permission Slips, etc.) will be posted on your child's Operoo account and should be updated by you as needed.
​
Teachers make every effort to communicate with families promptly via email, phone calls, written correspondence, or by meetings in person or via zoom. Please do not send emergency or time sensitive information via email since it may not be received in a timely manner by your child’s teacher. Please call the office directly or send a note in your child’s folder for all information that is time sensitive.

Going Green
In an effort to be more environmentally friendly, we will be uploading many of our notices online. Please make sure you are checking our online platforms on a consistent basis.
Also, we are partnering with GrowNYC to implement a more sustainable approach regarding our food scraps, recycle items and garbage during meal times. Students are learning simple steps in caring for our planet.
