PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE
Dear Parents and Guardians,
As we head into the fourth week of the final quarter, I want to take a moment to recognize the hard work and focus we’ve seen across our school community. With just a few weeks remaining in the school year, now is the time to finish strong. To our students—keep showing up, stay engaged, and take responsibility for your progress. If you’re preparing for Regents exams, please connect with your teachers early about review opportunities and extra help. They are here to support you every step of the way.
Parents and guardians, please be aware that in the coming weeks, the district will be conducting a variety of safety drills as part of our annual preparedness measures. These drills are important for ensuring our students and staff know what to do in any situation. We appreciate your partnership and understanding as we work to keep everyone safe.
Let’s continue to look out for one another, make good choices, and support each other in doing what’s right—every day, in every space.
Together, let’s make these final weeks count!
Mr. Yorke
