We’re thrilled to welcome Brenda Cardoza, the new Yonkers Public Schools Parent Coordinator! Ms Cardoza is a long-time advocate and trusted voice for our families. Her work will center on strengthening parent engagement and supporting our vulnerable student population, particularly those served under the McKinney-Vento Act, which addresses the needs of students experiencing homelessness. Surrounding Ms. Cardoza is Associate Superintendent Lissette Colón-Collins (left), and Superintendent of Schools Aníbal Soler, Jr. (right).

Pre-K Families!
We are excited to welcome you and your child to School 5 for Pre-K Orientation on Tuesday, September 2, from 1:45–2:45 PM. This will be a wonderful opportunity to meet teachers, visit classrooms, and begin building the home to school connection that is so important to your child’s success.
To help us stay organized and ensure your child’s supplies are ready for use, we kindly ask that all school supplies be clearly labeled with your child’s full name before bringing them in. This will make distribution in the classroom smooth and efficient.
We look forward to seeing you at orientation and starting the year together with joy and purpose!
