Urgent Issue
The administration at PS 144 was just notified that professional development days are being offered to all schools on June 25th & 26th. That means these would be non-instructional days for all children— school would be closed to students.
The DOE directive is that staff and parents have to vote to change the school calendar, on an individual school basis. The teachers in our school voted with majority to have these professional development days. Now parents need to vote.
Majority rules when we conduct a vote at Monday's Parents' Association meeting at 7:00 pm (May 14th).
You must be present at the PA meeting on Monday to vote whether school is open or closed on June 25th and 26th with the last day of school still being June 27th, with early dismissal.
