Principal's Family Letter

 

April 2026

 

Dear P.S./I.S. 192 School Community,

 

The arrival of spring has ushered in a renewed sense of optimism and growth. 

 

The past month proved to be highly successful, marked by our well-attended Parent Teacher Conferences, where over 500 students' parents engaged with their child's educators. For those unable to attend the scheduled conferences, we encourage you to arrange a meeting at your earliest convenience. Our teachers are available for parent engagement each week after school hours, ensuring flexibility in scheduling a suitable time to discuss your child's progress and needs.

 

March was a month filled with a diverse array of enriching celebrations and events that brought our school community together. These included Read Across America, Women's History Month, Civics Week, the Soapbox Assembly, Pi Day festivities, the Schoolwide Assembly for Student of the Month, the ENL Parent Workshops, Ballroom Dancing Showcase, Scholastic Book Fair, Winter Coat Drive and the 4th Annual Iftar Family Potluck, among many other events.  

 

We are deeply grateful to all the families who participated in these meaningful activities, as your involvement and engagement are instrumental in strengthening the bonds within our school community.

 

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated faculty for their unwavering commitment to providing the best educational experience for our students and families. 

 

As we approach the Spring Recess from Thursday, April 2nd to Friday, April 10th, we encourage you to take this opportunity to create cherished memories, relax, and enjoy every moment with your loved ones. 

 

We look forward to welcoming your child/children back on Monday, April 13th, refreshed and ready to continue our journey through the 2025-2026 school year.
