NYC Schools Chancellor Kamar Samuels is kicking off a citywide listening tour, giving families, students, and educators a chance to share feedback and ask questions directly. The 2/24 Manhattan meeting has been rescheduled to Mon, 3/23, 6:30 - 8:00pm, Manhattan Center for Science and Mathematics, 260 Pleasant Avenue. 

Conversations will focus on priorities like safety, academic programs, and school diversity. The idea is to use community input to help shape future decisions. If you have thoughts, questions, or concerns, this is a great opportunity to be heard. Parents and caregivers are strongly encouraged to participate. Multiple locations and times available.

Anderson parents should email communityaffairs@andersonpta.org if you are interested in attending any listening tour dates. 

Supplies are low!  Please help!!!  

Send snacks for the amazing Anderson teachers and staff.  Help keep the cart rolling by sending a few goodies from our Amazon wish-list. Everything ships straight to the school. Items as low as $12 are on the list. 

Thanks for fueling the Anderson community! We’ll keep adding new items to the wish-list, so check back often and keep the treats coming.
