If families are in need of technology support we are asking families to complete a survey sharing their best contact information over the next few weeks as well as whether they have access to a smartphone, a laptop/tablet/computer, the internet, or none of the above. We will use the information to prioritize device distribution and inform families of pickup location.   PLEASE NOTE THIS IS ONLY FOR FAMILIES THAT DO NOT HAVE A LAPTOP OR IPAD AT HOME. 

As we move to remote learning using Google Classroom, accounts have been set up for every student. Students must log in using the email address provided at classroom.google.com.  

The email address they will use is their FIRST name, followed by their LAST initial, their class, and the domain @21k095.gsuite.nyc. For example, if John Smith is in class 305, his Google email address would be JohnS305@21k095.gsuite.nyc. The password is gravesend. After you log in, you will be asked to join your classes. You can view a YouTube video that will take you step by step in joining them. Please reach out to Mrs. Caulford at MrsCaulford@gmail.com if you have any questions or need technical support. 

If your child must also log into MyOn, their username is their student ID number, which is a nine digit number. You can find on this number on the report cards or their MySchools account. The password is the number 1, followed by the first two letters of their FIRST name. For example, John Smith's password would be 1Jo. If you need assistance logging into MyOn, please contact Mrs. Caulford at the email address above. 

Please read the latest letter from the Chancellor regarding the Corona Virus.

Every year, all parents, teachers, and students in grades 6-12 take the NYC School Survey. The survey helps school leaders understand what key members of their school community think about the learning environment at their school. The information captured by the survey is designed to support a dialogue among all members of the school community about how to make the school a better place to learn.

The deadline is March 31st.

You can find more information and take the survey online by visiting the New York City Department of Education Survey Website. 

You can apply for PreK if your child was born in 2016 using a MySchools account, and apply to 3K if your child was born in 2017.
