A Message from Mrs. Figueroa
This past week was "National Assistant Principals Week." P.S. 188Q is grateful for all the work that Mrs. Nartowicz does each day!
As the saying goes, "April showers bring May flowers," we are starting to see flowers blooming right outside our school building. Here are a few important reminders for this week:
Stop-Drop-and Go at the Main needs your help. Please abide by the following guidelines so we can ensure the safety of all here at PS 188Q:
- Please arrive early to find parking on the streets around the school building. There is NO PARKING in front of the school or the schoolyard. There is NO PARKING in front of the school between the times of 7 a.m. to 4 p.m.
- Please do not block the road or leave your car double parked to drop off or pick up your child. We cannot block the road.
- Please do not block the neighbor's driveways.
- Please do not move the cones so you can park on Hartland at dismissal.
Please work with us to ensure that arrival and dismissal go smoothly.
April is Poetry Month. On Wednesday, we will be celebrating "Poem in Your Pocket" day. We are doing this early due to NYS Math testing so all of our students can participate. Make sure your child has their poem ready. Some suggestions are below.
To ensure that students have a COVID-19 test kit to use prior to returning from the Spring Recess, home test kits will be distributed on April 14th. Students will receive four test kits. Students should use the test kit on the evening of April 23, and again on the evening of April 24, before returning to school on April 25. Please note that while use of the test kit is strongly encouraged, participation is voluntary and staff and students are not required to show proof of a negative test result before being allowed to return to work and school.
