PS 39 Community Helping Each Other!

9/22/2020

D&I has started collecting stakeholder feedback, and compiling it into a community support document of activities and resources for the time students are not in school. This document contains information on the needs and capacities of our community members (parents, caregivers, siblings) to assist with after school activities for kids, ideas for socialization outside of school, ways to volunteer your time with our kids, etc. It is a living document, so we need your feedback. We are looking for the concerns and needs of all families in the remote learning space, as well as feedback from parents and caregivers on ways they might be able to support each other outside of school.
