At a time when unemployment has risen due to the pandemic, we hope these online courses will help New Yorkers get back on their feet. So, whether you're unemployed, underemployed, or are simply interested in learning new skills, check it out and sign up.

The difference between remote and in-person student learning is HUGE. Let us all be diligent in our actions so our students can come to school each and every day.

The end of October is here and the much anticipated Halloween is at the end of this week. š This year, it is our intention to maintain the positive and fun spirit of this event.
Students are allowed to wear appropriate costumes on Friday, October 30. The costume should not interfere with learning and the ability to attend classes (be able to sit at a desk, etc... ). Students should plan to wear their costumes during the course of the day. Students will not have the opportunity to change into a costume at school. The costume must not obstruct with the studentās duties and responsibilities of learning. The dress code applies to all costumes.
While students are not required to wear costumes on Halloween, those students who do wish to participate are reminded of the following guidelines:
Face painting should be applied at home and should be minimally applied so that studentsā faces are recognizable.
Costumes may not mock another student, faculty member, race, religious or lifestyle preference.
Costume accessories that are deemed dangerous or similar to weaponry are not permitted.
Full face masks or any item that will impede vision are not allowed.
Blow up costumes are not allowed.
Finally, all costumes should maintain the integrity of our school dress code.
Please understand that these guidelines are put in place to ensure the safety of all our students. If a studentās costume is found to be inappropriate, they will be asked to remove the costume. Wearing a costume is considered a school privilege.
Sadly, this year due to Covid restrictions we will not be having a school wide parade. Our yearbook staff will be taking pictures and posting them to our website and social media pages for all to enjoy.
