Schedule Information and In-Person & Remote Learning Options:
  • Classes run 8:50-2:20 PM with in-person and remote after school programs and remote Saturday Academy.

  • Students learning in person will report to the building at 8:30 Monday - Thursday. They will follow their Friday schedule remotely, working from home.

  • Students learning in person will eat lunch in the classroom during advisory.

  • Our schedules will remain the same for almost all students.

  • Students will follow their regular class schedules.

  • We will fill any remaining gaps in student programs for in-person learning days and make minor adjustments that are necessary (for example, updating a class for a student who is remote but temporarily scheduled for an in-person class or vice versa.)

  • Students who attended in-person in the fall or signed up for in-person learning in November were programmed for in-person learning this spring.

  • Parents may opt to move a student from in-person learning to fully remote learning at any time. This will require a full schedule change. Complete this Learning Preference form to choose Fully Remote Learning.

  • We do not know if there will be an opportunity to opt in for in-person learning this spring. Please contact Parent Coordinator Alex Rodriguez with questions about In-Person and Remote Learning options.

Health Protocols:
  • Students and staff must complete a health screening before entering the building. Students show the screening results to Ms. Gomez and Ms. McLaggon and take their temperature when they swipe in.

  • COVID-19 Testing will take place weekly in the building with 20% of staff and students being tested. Learn more about the New York City Department of Education testing program here.

  • Parents must complete the consent form for testing before your child reports to the building. The best way to do this is by creating a NYCSA account and linking your child to the account with consent. You may also print this paper consent form and send it with your child on Monday, March 22:
    English language Consent Form 
    Spanish language Consent Form
    For help with these forms, please contact Mr. Rodriguez or Ms. McLaggon
