Sample questions:

• What is the future of G&T and accelerated programs?

• If early entry changes, what clear pathways will exist to access accelerated learning later?

• Are there plans to expand strong accelerated programs into more districts citywide?

• How will DOE ensure students are truly ready for the pace and rigor of accelerated programs?

It’s that time again… the end of the year is around the corner, and we are very short of the funds we need for June gifts! Our teachers and staff work so hard and this is a great way to show them our gratitude and appreciation. Please consider giving generously if you are able! 

(Please remember that Chancellor’s Regulations ask teachers to only accept individual gifts if they are sentimental in nature or of small financial value, such as $5-10)

The suggested donation is $65 per child per year (a one-time donation), but no amount is too small!!

Listed below are various payment options (FOUR ways to give) for the Teacher Gift Fund. Please make sure to include in the memo line: "Teacher Gift Fund Donation"

A heartfelt thank you to all the families who represented different nationalities and cultures with such warmth, generosity, and open hearts. Your food, displays, stories, traditions, and presence made the Multicultural Event feel joyful, welcoming, and truly special.

A very special thank you as well to our parent volunteers who helped with setup, cleanup, coordination, and all the behind-the-scenes work that made the event such a success.

We are also deeply grateful to school administration, the Manhattan Youth volunteers, our custodial staff and school safety agents for their support, patience, and help throughout the event.

It was wonderful to see our community come together in such a beautiful way. Thank you again for making the evening so memorable.

Warm regards,

Ros & Priya
