ATTENTION ALL APOLLO FAMILIES:
3/23 Update:
NYC released information about child care centers that will be open for children of first responders, healthcare providers, and transit workers who are NYC residents and have no other child care options. Eligible families should complete this survey.
Beginning this Monday, March 23, grab and go meals will only be distributed at 439 meal hub sites across the city. The sites families have been using may no longer be distributing meals. Our Achievement First Coronavirus Resources page has more information, including the full list of grab and go meal locations.
Meals are available for all students 18 years old and younger. Scholars must be present in order to receive meals. Starting Monday, scholars will be allowed to take one breakfast and two lunches each day. The AF locations that have been distributing meals this week will be closed on Monday, we are working to open additional sites at Achievement First schools, and will send further communication as it becomes available.

We want to support our community through this uncertain time. The primary focus right now is on your family’s health and safety. We want to support our community while scholars are at home. One of the ways we are doing this is providing students with resources to continue learning at home. We hope you find this helpful.
3/16 update: Yesterday evening, Mayor De Blasio announced that all public school buildings will be open to provide meals to scholars tomorrow. The DOE communicated there will be meals available at each of our school buildings. (More information from the NYC DOC here.) As a result, all Apollo families are welcome to pick up meals at their designated Distribution Site (2021 Bergen St.) or pick up food at their school building (350 Linwood St.) given this change.
We will continue to be in touch. We miss each of you. Stay well.

This message is to inform you that while no members of our school community have tested positive for coronavirus, and, out of an abundance of caution and after significant consideration and planning, all Achievement First schools in New York will be closed starting this Monday, 3/16, through at least Monday, 3/30. We will be sending out communication as the situation unfolds via robo-call, text message, and email to keep you updated on when we are reopening. This was a difficult decision, but the safety of our students and staff is always a top priority, especially now. Please stay tuned in the upcoming days for additional information about student homework packets and breakfast and lunch programs.

ATENCIÓN A TODAS LAS FAMILIAS APOLO:

Las familias elegibles deben completar this survey
A partir de este lunes 23 de marzo, las comidas para llevar solo se distribuirán en 439 centros de comidas en toda la ciudad.

Actualización de 16 de marzo: Anoche, el alcalde De Blasio anunció que todos los edificios de las escuelas públicas estarán abiertos para proporcionar comidas a los estudiantes mañana. El DOE comunicó que habrá comidas disponibles en cada uno de nuestros edificios escolares. (Más información del NYC DOC aquí.) Como resultado, todas las familias de Apollo pueden recoger comidas en su sitio de distribución designado (2021 Bergen St.) o recoger alimentos en el edificio de su escuela (350 Linwood St.) dado este cambio.
Seguiremos en contacto. Extrañamos a cada uno de ustedes. Manténganse bien.
Queremos hacer lo posible por apoyar a nuestra comunidad en estos tiempos de incertidumbre. El enfoque principal en este momento es la salud y seguridad de su familia. Para contribuir algo de estabilidad durante estos tiempos, estamos brindando tareas de instrucción que los estudiantes pueden completar de forma independiente. Esperamos que lo encuentren útil:
Si tiene acceso al Internet / computadora: puede acceder las tareas a través de https://remotelearning.achievementfirst.org. ¡No necesita imprimir el paquete! Los estudiantes pueden completar el paquete en un cuaderno o en hojas sueltas de papel.
Si NO tiene acceso al Internet / computadora: puede recoger paquetes de tareas en persona. Nuestros recursos son limitados, por lo cual esta opción es solo para familias sin acceso al Internet. Los paquetes se pueden recoger lunes, 3/17 2-6PM en las siguientes ubicaciones. (Vaya a la ubicación que le resulte más conveniente, independientemente de la escuela a la que asista su hija/o).

Este mensaje es para informarle que, aunque ningún miembro de nuestra comunidad escolar ha dado positivo al coronavirus, por una abundancia de precaución y tras una consideración significativa, todas las escuelas de Achievement First en Nueva York estarán cerradas a partir de este lunes 16 de marzo, al menos hasta el lunes, 30 de marzo. Enviaremos comunicación a medida que la situación se desarrolle a través de llamadas automáticas, mensajes de texto y correos electrónicos para mantenerlos informados sobre la reapertura de las escuelas. Esta fue una decisión difícil, pero la seguridad de nuestros estudiantes y personal es siempre una prioridad, especialmente ahora.
