School Meals
The summer work continues here at the school. And with that hard work comes some very good news.
Our school has been approved by the NYC Office of Food and Nutrition Services for FREE meals for ALL of our students! We will have BREAKFAST, LUNCH delivered each day for all students. In addition, SNACKS for AFTER SCHOOL will be available for those enrolled and in attendance.
This is an enormous benefit to our students and families and we are pleased that we were able to accomplish this goal. We will share more details, including the menu's once we have received them.
The biggest impact is this allows us to offer Early Drop Off, with Breakfast, starting at 7AM, FREE OF CHARGE to all of our students. We are preparing a procedure notice which will include the location, times and expectations. It will be sent next week.

Calendars
The best way to keep updated on happenings at the school is keeping a sharp eye on our school calendar. We have already sent and posted the Refrigerator Calendar. This is our quick, at-a-glance overview of the entire year.
The Web Calendar, hosted by Google, is interactive. By subscribing to it, whenever an event is edited, added or canceled, the web calendar will keep you informed.
The ten-month calendar has now been added to our site. You can print this and hang it on the wall. It will be updated each month.
Meet & Greet
We had a huge crowd for our Annual Summer Meet & Greet. The event allows our youngest and newest students an opportunity to see the school in an informal setting. It also gives parents an opportunity to meet the teachers and get additional questions answered. Another by-product is the possibility of play-dates that get scheduled!
Here is a picture of our play yard that day!
