Information on Central, Internet-Enabled iPad Distribution Deadlines

Schools should note the April 23^rd deadline for families to complete a survey to receive an internet-enabled iPad from the DOE is for device delivery by April 30^th. We will continue to accept iPad requests through the Remote Learning Device Request Form and distribute devices to families who complete the form on a rolling basis beyond April 30^th. If families are having issues with their iPad or iPad delivery, DOE staff can submit a Helpdesk ticket on their behalf to receive support.

Remote Learning Technical Support for Families

Families can submit requests for technical support for a broad range of issues, including application support, lost, stolen, or broken devices, and delivery status, through the Technical Support for Families page. Note that when families select a topic and issue in the ticket submission form, the form will automatically list common resolutions to technical support problems; if the suggested resolutions do not resolve the family’s issue, they can continue to submit a tech support ticket by completing the form.

Save your Seat at 276

SAVE YOUR SEAT AT 276

We know that graduation this year is not going to be what we envisioned for our 5th and 8th graders, but you can give the graduation gift that will show your support for PS/IS276 and commemorate your child's time at our school.

A $500 gift will allow you to inscribe a plaque on a seat in the PS/IS 276 Auditorium.

Plaques may only be purchased in the name of a graduating 5th or 8th grader.
Purchase your plaque here!

The $500 contributions for Save Your Seat are fully tax deductible to the extent allowed by the law.

Songs and Stories for kids, from Mr. Lucas!

Hey everyone,

This is Lucas, kindergarten teacher from K-3. Just letting you know that I created a youtube channel for kids songs, stories and read-alouds. So far I have about 6-7 songs on it recorded from my living room, but I'm just getting started. Here are the songs and the youtube links below if you would like to share with your students or anyone you know with little ones. I made this public so that any kid who wants to hear can access it. I would love it if you would join my youtube channel:

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSJFtrxh_RrHfQ3piX3EZCQ?view_as=subscriber

Peace like a river
This little Light of Mine
Red, Red, Robin
Mail Myself to You
Three Little Birds
Baby Beluga
Comin’ Round the Mountain

In Solidarity and Love,
Lucas

Giving has never been easier! Small monthly payments add up to make a huge difference. Most families give between $50-$100 each month. If every family signed up for recurring payments, we would be able to fund all of our programs.

Thank you to everyone who has already given this year.
