COMMUNICATION WITH FAMILIES:
Please contact Lilian Ghali, Parent Coordinator, at 718-250-1944, 5044, or in room 504 with any concerns. Feel free to request an appointment with teachers or administrators. Since teachers are in the classroom teaching during the day, it is best to schedule an appointment so we can make sure someone is available to meet with you. The school has many bilingual staff and access to interpretation services, so we can always find someone who speaks your language.

To be included in our email list, please email Lilian Ghali at [email protected].
