    Letter From Our Principal

    • Dear Parents/Guardians,

      We hope you are having a wonderful holiday! Happy New Year!!

      As we return to school on January 4, 2021, we are excited to announce that we are able to offer all of our students more in person days in school! We will be switching our school model to Model 5B. In Model 5B, most students will be coming to school 2-3 days a week. We have also been able to offer some students 5 days a week as well. In this 5B model, we will ONLY have Group A, B, and Group 5 in person. Group C will be eliminated. All Group C students have been given a new group, either A or B. If you are in a new group, you have your new ID card in this packet. Use this card to enter the school building on your designated days.

      On their designated in-person days, they will learn in the building and on their remote days, they will be expected to log-in at 8:30am for remote learning. The school day is from 8:30-2:00pm for Gr. K-5 and 8:45-2:15pm for PreK. Schedules specific to each classroom are displayed in the Google Classroom. 

      We are now a Model 5B school and our 2-week cycle looks like the sample below.

       schedule

      For in-person learning, we will need to continue to adhere to all safety guidelines. Because of social distancing, please do not send students to school early or arrive late to pick them up from school. Each day, students who are attending in the school building, will have a daily health screening and temperature check at arrival. In addition, we have random Covid-19 testing on a weekly schedule. If you have not yet filled out consent, please be sure to go on our website and fill out the form online.

      For the health and safety of all our families, please keep your child at home if they:

      • Been knowingly in close or proximate contact in the past 14 days with anyone who has tested positive through a diagnostic test for COVID-19 or who has symptoms of COVID-19.
      • Tested positive through a diagnostic test for COVID-19 in the past 14 days. Notify school so we can initiate testing and tracing protocols.
      • Experienced any symptoms of COVID-19 in the past 14 days including a temperature of 100.0F or higher
      • Traveled internationally or from a state with widespread community transmission of COVID-19 as per the New York State Travel Advisory in the past 14 days.

      Our plan will continue to evolve, and updates will be shared with families and posted on our website throughout the school year. If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to the school to set up a phone conference or virtual meeting. Visitors will be limited in the building and will also need to adhere to all new safety procedures. If you have any questions or concerns, please email admin@ps36x.org

      We thank you for your continued partnership, support, and understanding as we continue on this journey together.

      Sincerely,

      Elvira Maresca

      Principal
