Dear Fellow Bronx Science Parents and Guardians,

Get ready for the main event this week! The PA is excited to welcome you to the in-person PA meeting and holiday gathering this Wednesday, December 13 at the school. This is a night you won’t want to miss! Festivities begin at 6 PM, with refreshments and an opportunity to do some Bronx Science swag shopping. Then stay to join us for the PA meeting starting at 7 PM, followed by a special presentation.

We are pleased to welcome back a panel of our own Bronx Science students, along with AP Andrew Nasser, who will share insights into how students can use the Guidance Department resources and give an overview of how Guidance works with students throughout their time at Bronx Science.

Please RSVP here TODAY so we can get a headcount for refreshments. We also still have several more merchandise and hospitality volunteer spots open! Please sign up to volunteer here. November meeting minutes will be voted on during PA business, and can be found here.

Important update: Due to staffing issues, there will NOT be a remote option for this meeting. To continue to provide a Zoom option for our hybrid meetings, we must expand our in-person tech team. See here for information on this role, and if you are interested in joining the team, please email us at president@bxsciencepa.org.

Finally, last week we highlighted the importance of Bronx Science parents and guardians attending our district town halls. Please note that the State of the District Parent Town Hall with Superintendent Fia Davis previously scheduled for December 14 will now be held remotely on January 18, 2024, at 6 PM (see post below). Please save the date, and we will provide more updates as they become available.

We look forward to seeing many of you this Wednesday at the PA holiday meeting. Please also remember to RSVP today! Our in-person events are a vital part of our mission to build a robust Bronx Science community, so we hope that you will make every effort to join us.

Happy Hanukkah to those in our community who celebrate!

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Polkovitz, Jennifer Allen-Cheng, and Christine Kattan

The PA would like to wholeheartedly thank Ernie Sander, Jenny He and Sai Satav Swarup for the countless hours spent organizing merchandise and preparing for our upcoming December 13 holiday swag sale!
