I hope all is well! We all know that trash has been a tremendous issue for our city in recent years, an issue that has been exacerbated in the midst of the COVID 19 pandemic. It is time to clean our streets back up. For this reason I am reaching out to you to invite your parents to Council Member Carmen De La Rosa’s Sanitation Town Hall that will be held next Tuesday, October 18th from 6pm-9pm at the YM & YWHA located at 54 Nagle Avenue. The Department of Sanitation Commissioner Jessica Tisch will be joining us along with Congressman Adriano Espaillat, as they all give a report on sanitation services that the community will be receiving and as they listen to community concerns. We hope you can share the flyer attached and we hope to see you all there!

Your child will take their 8th grade yearbook cap & gown picture in the school auditorium on Monday October 17, 2022. Please send your child to school on Monday October 17, 2022 with formal attire.

Please fill out the form below with your child’s T-shirt size, cap & gown size, and your parent/guardian contact information. You can email the form to [email protected] or your child can bring it to Room 119.

Thank you for your time and attention.
Sincerely,
Ms. Berretta
