Dear Fellow Bronx Science Parents and Guardians,

This week, Bronx Science held its first in-person Open House in three years, and the community came together to showcase the best the school has to offer. Prospective students and families were greeted by an energetic and enthusiastic group of Bronx Science students, administrators, and parent volunteers, all eager to describe the unique qualities and culture that makes this school so special. It was wonderful to see Bronx Science pride on full display at this well-attended event, with students answering questions about their Bronx Science scholastic and extracurricular experiences. Not surprisingly, the students were the stars, living up to the well-deserved reputation of the school.

The PA was delighted to help support the school’s marquee event. Parent and guardian volunteers were on hand to meet with and answer questions from prospective families about their experience at Bronx Science. We extend our appreciation to all our event volunteers who helped make this Open House such a success (see In the Spotlight post below). We heard how much prospective families valued this opportunity to speak with current families, while our volunteers enjoyed the unique opportunity to experience the bustling energy of the school.
