Dear Families,
FALL FAMILY EVENTS!
We look forward to the return of our Annual Costume Parade. This year we will host the parade for all students in grades Pre-K – Grade 5. Our annual P.S. 212 Spook-tacular
Parade is on October 31, 2024. For the safety of all children parents may view the parade from the outside of the large yard. Children may not wear face masks or bring in
any toy weapons with their costumes. A small amount of face make up is permitted. Please have your child wear appropriate shoes or sneakers with their costumes. Plastic
costume shoes or slippers are not permitted. Please be sure that children wear coats over their costumes. We will try to limit the outdoor time to 20- 30 minutes. Dance Club
parents should also attend to see the “Thrilling” Performance! If it rains we will NOT be hosting the parade. There is no rain date.
PARADE STARTS AT 9 am. DANCE CLUB PERFORMS 9:15 am
Our PTA will be providing students with candy treats. Your child’s teacher will notify you if they are having a class party. If you would like to opt your child out of the parade
and/or class party you must send a written note to your child’s teacher or notify our Parent Coordinator, Ilia Liff at Iliff@schools.nyc.gov by 10/30/2024.
On October 18, 2024, we will be hosting a FALL FAMILY FUN ARTS AND CRAFT activity with children and their family in PRE-K to Grade 2 classrooms. Due to the
availability of classroom space, we ask that only one parent or family member attend. On October 14, 2024, all visitors must know their child’s class number and bring ID to
sign in at security.
Schedule for October 18, 2024 FALL FAMILY FUN ARTS AND CRAFTS
Grades 1 and 2. 1:20 pm
Grades Pre K and Kindergarten 1:20 pm
Parents of Pre-K may remain and help escort the class to dismissal with the teachers. Kindergarten, Grade 1 and 2 parents will exit by 2 pm and meet the class at their
dismissal doors!
