WELCOME
Dear 131 Families,
Welcome to a brand-new school year at P.S. 131!
On behalf of the entire PTA Executive Board, we are thrilled to welcome all of our returning families and extend a very warm welcome to those who are joining our school community for the first time. We hope you all had a wonderful and restful summer and are as excited as we are for the year ahead.
The PTA’s mission is to strengthen the connection between home and school to help all our children thrive. Throughout the year, we will work to provide opportunities for families to engage with our school community through events, workshops, volunteer opportunities, and more. We are committed to supporting our children, our school staff, and YOU — our parent community.
We encourage you to stay connected with us! If you ever have any questions, suggestions, or would like to get involved, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We welcome your participation and value your input — together, we can make this school year an incredible experience for all of our students.
Thank you for your ongoing support. We look forward to meeting you at upcoming school events and working together to make this a fantastic year!
Warm regards,
Greetings P.S. 131 Families,
Dear 131 Families,
Welcome to the 2024 – 2025 school year. I hope you had a great summer spending quality time with your family. As your Parent Coordinator, my main goal is to increase family engagement within our school and community. I am here to assist each parent/guardian and student with any questions, concerns or issues that may arise. If I cannot provide an answer to you, I will connect you with someone
who can.
I am here to work in collaboration and facilitate a strong and healthy partnership between all stakeholders (Administration, Teachers, & Parents) in your scholar’s education. My focus is to work with you, building a strong and healthy partnership, leading to a successful educational career for your child(ren). Family engagement is crucial for a child’s academic success. I am committed to creating a welcoming environment and encouraging all families to become active participants in their child’s academic journey.
In the coming months, I will facilitate monthly workshops geared toward self-care and social emotional well-being as well as many other topics of importance. These workshops will be held either in-person or virtually. Through this collaboration, we can establish a pathway for clear and consistent communication. An increased level of communication will result in improved academic success.
Also, it is important to have your NYC Schools Account set up. Contact me for your unique account creation code. Please feel free to contact me with any questions, or concerns. I look forward to collaborating with you either by email, phone, or in-person.
