PS188Q Newsletter for the weeks of March 2nd

Dear PS188Q Families,

Here is the weekly newsletter from Mrs. Figueroa. This is the one stop place for families to get current information on policy and events taking place in the school and the NYCDOE.

Please make arrangements to have your child picked up at the end of the school day. Teachers will be sending out appointment.

Attention Parents! The PTA is looking to host a Multicultural Fair celebrating the diversity of PS188Q. We’re looking for volunteers to assist our event chairs to make this a successful event! Some volunteer duties include hosting cultural booth, assist with the flow of the event and donate food and decorations. We’re flexible with the time you can contribute.
