• Update August 13th

  Hello Harbor View Families, 

  I hope you are all well and enjoying your day with families. The Superintendents team communicated earlier today that we can request an exception to make Monday remote for all students 

  This exception was requested by the School Leadership team in July when we had our initial conversations about our model selections.  Family surveys also showed concerns about consistency of days for in person learning.  At that point, this exception was not possible due to NYC DOE guidance.  

  As of this afternoon, we are able to request this exception.  We have consulted with our UFT Representative as well as our PTA President and are in agreement to move forward in this request.  This exception means that all students are remote on Mondays, Group A will attend in person Tuesday and Wednesday, and group B will attend in person on Thursday and Friday. 

  We continue to work on programming and will share schedules with families as soon as possible. 

  Please remember to join us on Friday, August 14th at 9am for Coffee and Conversations. 

  Thank you for your continued support and please reach out to us with any questions.
