Here's what to do before September 7, 2023:

This past week saw the culmination of our parenting workshop series, in partnership with @AreteEducation

It was a huge success, and we look forward to opening up these workshops again in the fall.

Happy Juneteenth! This past Friday, in anticipation of today's holiday, our students completed informational worksheets, coloring pages, and participated in a Juneteenth Parade around our school block.

[PS59BK @PS59BK]

We had a blast at our soccer game against P.S. 250. It was a tie game, so we probably need a rematch !!! 😀⚽️

[PS59BK @PS59BK]

Students at P.S. 59 participated in a truly beautiful boutique experience with our career expo. It provided an intimate setting for students to really get to know each vendor and ask specific questions about careers and career paths they may be interested in.

[PS59BK @PS59BK]

We want to take this time to shout out a few of the fathers in our school building as well as show appreciation to the father-figures for the way they show up for our students every single day.

Happy Father's Day!
