  • Literacy Resources for Families.

     

     

    NYC Public Schools launched NYC Reads to ensure that every student in our pre-kindergarten and elementary school classrooms is receiving effective, research-backed reading instruction using proven materials and methods. The resources and activities below are available for all families to use to continue that learning at home, and will help your child build important literacy skills necessary for educational, career, and lifetime success. Together, we can support students on their journey to becoming strong and confident readers! 

    Please visit this page to learn more ways on how to support your child's reading at home. For more information please use this link At home activities.

  • Back to School Checklist.

    Get ready for the first day of school, Thursday, September 5, 2024! Here’s what to do for a great start to the school year: 

    Update your contact information.

    Don’t miss important updates from NYC Public Schools and your child’s school! You can update your information online in your NYC Schools Account (NYCSA), or complete the emergency contact form provided by your school. If you do not yet have an NYC Schools Account, visit the NYC Schools Account page.

    Visit a physician for a physical exam.

    Is your child starting school or childcare for the first time? Make sure your child receives a complete physical exam from a health care provider, documented by the Child and Adolescent Health Examination Form (CH205). Learn more and download this form at Health Requirements to Attend School.

    Review the 2024–25 NYC school calendar.

    View important dates and find printable files in multiple languages for the 2024–25 school year on the Calendar page on our website, and bookmark schools.nyc.gov/calendar to keep up with upcoming dates and events throughout the school year.

    Set a standard bedtime and morning routine before the first day of school.

    Ensure a smooth transition to the new school year by getting your children adjusted to a regular and healthy sleep schedule before September. Then, a few days before school starts, practice your family’s expected morning routine, including getting ready, eating breakfast, and traveling to your child’s school.

    We can’t wait to see you on the first day of school, Thursday, September 5 at 8:00 am.
