Encourage Parents to Sign Up for NYCSA!!!!
We are encouraging our families to set up NYCSA (New York City Schools Accounts) by the end of the month. With active NYCSA enrollment, our families will be able to access bus information, medical forms and health documentations documentation, attendance information and more! The DOE is utilizing and expanding this platform to help increase family engagement and communication pertaining to the school.
During upcoming family outreach time on Tuesday afternoons, please contact your families and help support them in setting up their NYCSA accounts. Here is a resource guide to use when assisting families: https://www.schools.nyc.gov/learning/student-journey/nyc-schools-account/nycsa-account-set-up-guide-for-parents#followstepsbelow. Please be sure to let families know that translation options are available on the set-up website.
In addition to parent outreach time, we will also be holding in-person support sessions, if more assistance is required.
Thank you in advance for assisting and supporting our families!
