Dear PS 8 Families,

Attached find the March NYCPS Family Update letter.  This letter contains important information for families on applying to Summer Rising, completing the NYC School Survey, and participating in Community & Citywide Education Council candidate forums. 

Thanking you for your support and partnership.  Have a wonderful weekend.

Respectfully,

Claudia Tahiraj-Sadrija

Next Wednesday, February 5th is Energy: Climate Action Day.

We will be hosting a "Lights Out" period following announcements Wednesday morning to demonstrate how simple changes can make a difference.

Additionally, I have put together a Padlet for students, staff and parents to share their thoughts and ideas. Please take a moment to discuss the importance of energy conservation and encourage your students to respond to the Padlet questions. I have attached the link below so that you can share it with your students via Google Classroom or ClassDoJo. It will also be available on the daily bulletin next week.

Thank you for participating.

Respectfully,
Dawn Nelson
