Dear BNS Families,

Happy New Year!

There has been a chill in the air these past few weeks, one that has made me even more grateful for the warmth, joy, love, and compassion I feel every time I'm in the building at BNS. Our children are learning that the world is full of wonder, goodness, and possibility—and that we all have a responsibility to make our society the best it can be.

PTA Newsletter No. 3 - 12/11/2024

Dear BNS Families,

As the year winds down, we’re reflecting on the incredible learning and growth happening at Brooklyn New School. Students are fully immersed in the hands-on, project-based activities that define BNS—whether using Class 1 levers to lift each other or channeling water flow at the Salt Marsh, they’re thinking critically and solving real-world problems.

There are many ways for families to connect with student learning this month—3rd and 4th Grades have Shares, 1st Grade has a Math Morning, and 2nd Grade has a grade level family meeting.

December calendars went home on Friday, and you’ll find reminders of key dates below and in Konstella. Don’t miss the PTA meeting on Friday, December 13th, at 8:20 AM. We hope to see you soon!

Thank you for helping make BNS a place where students thrive. Wishing you a joyful holiday season!

Sincerely,

Your BNS PTA
