Parent Support Group
Dear Families,
We know that the past year has been difficult for many of our students and their families. We want to support our community in whatever ways they need. We are asking that you complete the following survey so that we can identify what the needs of our families are.
Family Assessment in English and Spanish (Espanol)
Family Assessment in English and Chinese (中国人)
Family Assessment in English and Arabic (عربى)
We will also be creating a parent support group beginning on Tuesday, April 27th.
Due to the COVID 19 pandemic, we will be meeting via Zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/4639553337
Please reach out with any questions, for more details contact Peter Tyson at PTyson@hstat.org or call at 917-697-0886.
