Dear PS/IS 192 Families,

We cannot wait to see all our returning students.   We miss them!  We also are so excited to get to meet our new students!   I’m sure our parents/guardians are excited to send them off to school as well!

As we wrap up this final week of summer vacation, we’d like to provide you with information for the coming school year:

• School hours:  Our school day will start at 8:10 am and end at 2:30 pm (though we dismiss our youngest students a bit earlier for safety reasons).  We will open the main entrance doors early, from 7:40 am - 8 am, to accommodate students and families who want or need an earlier arrival time and to provide a free, hot breakfast to students
• Arrival procedures for the first 2 days only:
  • Pre-K students will follow the abbreviated schedule sent earlier this summer in the mail. (If you did not receive the letter, please call the school on 9/6 or 9/7 to find out the session times for your child on the first 2 days.  Pre-K students will line up along the fence at the building entrance on 47th Street.  They will eat breakfast in their classrooms.
  • Kindergarten students will be escorted by their parents/guardians through the 48th Street school yard gate by 8:10 am.  They will find their class sign and line up by their sign.  Kindergarten teachers will greet students at 8:10 am.  An administrator will be available for any questions.  Students will be offered a grab and go breakfast these 2 days. 
  • Students in grades 1-8 will enter through the main entrance at 8:07 am. Assigned Staff will be in the multipurpose room to direct traffic
  • Grades 1-3 students will sit by class in the cafeteria and will be greeted by their teachers and be escorted to class at 8:10 am or shortly thereafter
  • Grades 4-8 students will go to the auditorium using stairwell D and will be greeted by their teachers and be escorted to class at 8:10am or shortly thereafter. 
• Arrival procedures starting September 12th:
  • Pre-K students will be picked up at 8:10am on 47th Street and escorted to their classroom.  Breakfast will be in their classroom.
  • Students in K-8 will enter through the main entrance at 8:07 am and go straight up to their classrooms.  Assigned Staff will be in the multipurpose room to direct traffic
    •  Students in  Grades K-3 will go up to class using stairwell B
    • Grades 4-8 will go up to their classrooms using Stairwell D 

. 

• Early students will have a choice to eat breakfast or go to the auditorium from 7:40 am - 8 am.

• Dismissal procedures
  • Parents/guardians will stand outside their child’s designated dismissal location in the afternoon as follows: 

• Any students whose parents are late to pick up their child are brought to the auditorium. 
• Parents/guardians who are late to pick up their child will go to the main entrance and be greeted by a staff member.  Parents/guardians are not to stand in the vestibules during arrival and dismissal times. 

Additionally, here is a reminder of some “to do” items that will help with a smooth start to the school year:

• Update NYSCA account with current contact information (Please call the school if  you need your unique code to register).  
• Finalize back to school shopping.  Here is a link to the supply lists and the school dress code
• Please label all supplies with your child’s name and class (Ex. Colby Muscarelle, K-211).  If you did not receive his/her class, it is available on his/her NYCSA account.  

 We are looking forward to working with you to support our young scholars and to help them reach their full potential.   Thank you for your entrusting us with your children.

Sincerely,

Colby Muscarelle
