Parent's Guide
Greetings Families
Welcome to another year of The PS 11 PTA After School Enrichment Program. We are delighted that you have registered your child in our After School Enrichment Program. To help keep you informed of our program, we have produced this Parent Guide. It includes important information about our policies and procedures. Please read it thoroughly and discuss it with your child at your earliest convenience. Some of our policies have changed so please read it carefully.
We appreciate you entrusting your child to our care. We provide every child with the opportunity to grow in a caring, fun, and safe environment. Students are encouraged to develop to their true potential in every way including emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. We offer many classes to foster this growth such as Art, Basketball, Capoeira, Ceramics, Chess, Coding, Dance, Drama, Engineering, Flag Football, Gymnastics, Music, Robotics, Science, Soccer, and so much more. We strive to support our students in becoming successful members of society.
We look forward to working with you and your child during this upcoming Enrichment cycle. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at 917-601-4484 or ase@ps11bk.org.
Sincerely,
Simone LeConte, Enrichment Director
and the After School Enrichment Program Staff
