    In last week’s family letter, I mentioned that we would send a survey to families to receive feedback on the new Parent teacher conference platform we used called PTC Wizard.  Our goal is to improve the experience for our future Parent Teacher Conference. Your feedback is very valuable. Please click on the link below or visit our website to fill out the survey.

    https://forms.gle/aykZHe5LDLhbpwL69

    Reminder The 2024 NYC School Survey is officially open.  Every year Students, Parent and Teachers fill out the survey.  The survey provides valuable information on what we are doing well at IS230 and what we can do to improve. You can fill out a paper version of the survey or you can do it online.  Last year we had 60% of parents complete the 2022-23 survey our hope is to improve that number this year.  For more information please see the letter that was sent home and emailed to all families on March 11th and or Contact our Parent Coordinator Mr. Salazar.

    This week we continued our March Madness Attendance Initiative. Research shows that students who attend school regularly have been shown to achieve at higher levels than students who do not have regular attendance.

    Every day that a student arrives to school on time will receive a raffle ticket to be eligible to win a prize each week.  The weekly prizes range from Dunkin Donut Gift Cards to Family Four Pack of Movie Tickets.  The grand prize on each grade level is a $100 Amazon gift card. To be eligible for the grand prize students must be on time 100% and have zero absences for the Month of March.

    A PTA donation letter was sent out to the home with the students. We are currently asking for your help in donating time and/or money. There is no monetary amount and parents are free to donate whatever they are able to do so. You can bring your donations to the main office located in the main building and place them in the PTA donation box or you can make a deposit via our PayPal account. The information for the PayPal account is in the school website.

    One of our goals this year is to create more shared experiences for our students at IS230. This month we starting to collect dues for the following field trips and dances:
