September 9, 2022 Letter from Mr. Gatto to P.S. 33 Families:

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the 2022 – 2023 school year!  The following letter provides you with some important information for the start of the school year.  As always, we will be updating you all frequently as the year progresses, but we want to be sure you and your child(ren) have everything you need to feel prepared for day 1. 
 
First Day of School: Thursday, September 8th, 2022.  Grades will line up outside (except for PreK and Kindergarten) to meet their teachers and classmates in the following locations:
 
Pre-K – Front entrance
Kindergarten – Cafeteria
Grade 1 – Basketball courts
Grades 2 & 3 – School inner yard
Grades 4 & 5 playground athletic (turf) field
 
These outdoor line-up locations will only take place for the first 2 days of school (weather permitting) while everyone gets accustomed to their class and teachers.  Indoor arrival (locations below) will begin on Monday, September 12. 
 
School Hours: Monday to Friday from 8:00 AM-2:20 PM(Kindergarten-Grade 5)  8:00 AM-2:00 PM (Pre-K)
 
Our doors open at 8:00 am every school day.  Breakfast will be served in the classroom to any students that wish to eat.  Arrival locations are as follow:
PreK – Main entrance of school building
Kindergarten and Grade 1 – Cafeteria Entrance (Ramp)
Grade 2 – Right side of inner school yard
Grade 3 – Left side of inner school yard
Grade 4 and Grade 5 – Rear of Auditorium (off of 92 Ave.)
 
All teachers will be utilizing the app Class Dojo to communicate with parents.  Please make sure to download and set up an account if you have not already.  Teachers will be sending invites to connect the first week of school.  You will also be asked to complete Emergency contact cards (“Blue Cards”) with all of your family’s information.  Please be sure to complete and return these to your child’s teacher as soon as possible. 
 
Student supply lists can be seen on our website, click image above.  Students may bring their supplies in little by little over the course of the first few days of school since carrying everything at once can be difficult. 
 
If you have any further questions or concerns, please reach out to us at 718-465-6283, or via email using the email address found on our school website.  We are all here to assist. 
 
We once again welcome you back and are excited to begin another wonderful school year at P.S. 33. 
Sincerely,
Mr. Vincent Gatto
Principal
