PS39 is continuing our partnership with the Tenement Museum on their “Your Story, Our Story” project. “Your Story, Our Story” started in a Brooklyn middle school and has expanded to high school and colleges. Last year PS 39 was the pilot school for their expansion into elementary school and we are excited to participate again. This project allows our children to celebrate their unique, rich, family histories. We know that by sharing our stories we are helping to strengthen our community. Learn more about this project on our Your Story, Our Story page.
This week is a chance to recognize the love and care that our teachers and staff give to our students. Please take a few minutes to read about all the ways you can say "thanks!" on our Staff Appreciation Flyer. Students and families can use this special Thank You Note template to go with our garden theme to share their kind words. And please sign up to donate an item to our Garden Party luncheon on Thursday, May 9.
