Fiona Gil and Valerie Budiman’s art were displayed at the Queens Museum. And Valerie’s TV quote on NY1 is absolutely top-notch: “I chose an owl [as her spirit animal] because I’m a solo worker.”
June is near. Here are some key dates from the NYCDOE calendar.
June 8 Anniversary Day: students do not attend
June 12 Clerical day: elementary & middle school students do not attend
June 26 Eid al-Fitr: schools closed
June 28 Last day of school for all students
But then here’s the 102 Calendar (and it’s not even final).
5/31: Superintendent Visit w/ Meet and Greet with Families in Temporary Housing
6/1: Kindergarten Orientation
6/1-6/2: Boston trip for both 7th and 8th grade

6/9: End Term/ Jeanene-Surprise-Everyone-with-4MoreYears Announcement Party
6/13: STEAM CON

6/16: Pre-K Graduation; 4th Grade Drama Production (5th Period)
6/21: Math Ninja Warrior
6/22: Kindergarten Graduation
6/23: 8th Grade Graduation
I have no doubt every one of these events will be amazing, and I thank all for putting in the extra effort that makes 102 special. One thing we do need to make sure we improve is communication: teachers please help us get the word out to families about these events. We will be backpacking a memo home with brief explanation of all June events, and if you use apps like Remind, Class Dojo, or Google Classroom, etc. to connect with parents, use those channels as well to publicize and inform. (Let’s just assume that backpacked letters rarely reach parents)
THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW
Rest up.
