Dear PS 124 Families,
 
This week begins the first of many "Parents As Reading Partners" for the younger grades at PS 124. 2 years ago, I recall walking away feeling grateful for the opportunity to support learning in the classroom. It's just one of the many ways you can get involved with your child's education.

To update those who don't know, there was a flood earlier in the week that damaged various classroom supplies. At this point, we are aware of one kindergarten class in need of tissues, ziplock bags and paper towels. Please email ps124pta@gmail.com if you are able to donate any of those items.

Thank you for checking in! Hope everyone is enjoying the first full week of school!
 
Best,
Jill Bloch
PS 124 Brooklyn PTA President

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 2 • 8:30am - 9:00am
Location: In your child's classroom!

The Parents as Reading Partners program is held on Fridays throughout the year. It's a program that highlights the school's dedication to reading as the foundation for future learning. Parents and caregivers are encouraged to join their child in the classroom, pick up one of the books provided in the class, and just sit down and enjoy a book with your child.
T-SHIRTS AND SWEATSHIRTS ON SALE NOW THROUGH FRIDAY, 10/9. YOU CAN ORDER AT BOOSTER.COM/PS124PTA OR RETURN THE ORDER FORM IN THE YELLOW COMMUNICATION FOLDER.
