We are pleased to announce our participation in the New York Cares Volunteers Day program. On Saturday, October 18th, over 40 volunteers from the New York Cares organization visited our school as part of New York City’s largest day of volunteer service. Volunteers representing over three companies and corporations helped to revitalize and reinvigorate the stairwells
and corridors of our school.
We are very thankful to have been included in New York Cares Day 2008. Now
decorating our school are pictures of Greek columns, Greek gods and goddesses,
the Olympic rings, inspirational words of wisdom and much more!
Citywide, over 8,000 caring New Yorkers assisted in the overall transformation of more than 119 public schools! In just one day they painted hundreds of classrooms and hallways, organized 50 libraries, painted over 400 amazing murals, and much more. Thanks to them, more than 88,000 children will find their schools magically transformed into wonderful, vibrant places to learn and grow.

Sincerely,
Christina Tettonis
Principal
