The mayor has announced a return to school plan. This will include students who opted back into blended learning before the November 15th deadline. We do not know if another window will be offered to opt back into blended learning.

December 7th – All PreK through 5th grade students will return to blended learning at Carroll Street. Carroll Street will remain on an A/B schedule and can not accommodate a 5 day/week option at this time. Monday December 7th is a “B” Day.

December 14th – All students in blended learning will return to Adelphi Street ( we are in discussions with the NYC Department of Education regarding a 5 day a week for families who opted their students into blended learning). December 14th is an in person learning day.

COVID-19 Mandatory Consent Form – Students in 1st through 5th grade who are returning into blended learning as well as new students in blended learning must provide consent for COVID-19 testing on file in order to return. Even if you have already submitted consent, we ask that you do so again to ensure we have the latest consent form on file prior to their start date. Exemptions will be granted in certain limited cases. Please go to your NYC Schools Account (NYCSA) at https://mystudent.nyc/ to fill out this form.

Daily Health Screenings – For those students who will be joining in person learning for the first time, please be sure to fill out your daily health screening for each child https://healthscreening.schools.nyc/ for every day of in-person learning. Teachers will review your building access confirmation for each student prior to letting them into the building.

Adults at the Adelphi Street Site and the Carroll Street Site of the school created video messages to say how much they miss the students.

Special thanks to parent Brian Miksis for his outstanding editing and AP Ms Rosa Perez Leonetti and parent Cheri Anderson for organizing the project.

The administration was able to review the results of the Remote Learning Survey assessing the top priorities for school families during remote learning. In response, we compiled information on a website that hopefully communicates to you (in one location) the resources and contacts for the specific concerns you may have. 

Thank you for the many positive acknowledgements of classroom staff. We tried to address as many of your concerns as possible on the site and hope to reassess at a later date to see if your priorities have shifted. Thank you to Doug Dugan for sending out tech resources early on which allowed us to expand on these pages. As always, continue to reach out should you need support. 

Survey results and resources.

Dear Children’s School Families and Students: 

We miss all of your faces already! 

I hope this letter finds you all well. Thank you for the many kind words you have shared with your child’s classroom staff. They are all working at getting your Google Classroom up and running so that the students and the teaching staff can continue to have contact with you all through this difficult time. We spent last week organizing our remote learning plans, contacting every family to make sure that you have the necessary technology needed and to make certain that you have access to the remote systems we are creating. At this time, every student from PreK to 8th grade at our Carroll Street and Adelphi Street locations have been given a gmail account in order to access the google classroom. 

Students and families are encouraged to participate in the check ins, assignments, and activities that teachers have created. We certainly understand if you cannot follow every detail outlined by the remote plans. Do your best and make sure to communicate with your administrators, teaching staff and parent coordinator if the need arises. This is a stressful enough time and we do not wish to add to that. 

Technology distribution began last week. If you are in need of technology, please reach out to our Parent Coordinator who can assist you with completing the survey that was released by the Chancellor’s office. We wish to make sure that every student who can participate in remote learning can do so with the necessary technology. 

School is not cancelled, it is just different! This is a time to stay connected albeit remotely. This is a time to learn from one another as some of us are technology savvy and some of us not. If you have ideas for us, please share them. You will continue to receive information from your teachers beginning March 23, 2020 as this is the launch date for Remote Learning.
