The Fashionable Times Blog Principal's Message 12.3.17

Greetings Fashion Families from your Principal Daryl Blank.  Thank you for all your help and support with the safety incident that took past this week.  I appreciate you having the confidence in the school to keep HSFI safe and secure.

This Monday is a ‘First Monday’ schedule where students will start school later and be dismissed from school early so that our staff can meet in teacher teams for professional development.  Students who begin school 1st period will start at 8:30 am.  Students who begin school 2nd period will start at 9:09 am.  Students who finish school after 8th period will be dismissed at 1:43 pm.  Students who finish school after 9th period will be dismissed at 2:22 pm.

As you are planning your schedule for the week I hope you can attend our December Parents Association meeting this Wednesday, December 6 at 6:00 pm in Room 829. 

Report cards for the second marking period will be distributed to students this Friday.  As of tomorrow, Monday, we are in the third marking period of the term – you need to understand that the grades your children receive at the end of January will be the grades that will go on their transcripts and be seen by colleges. 

As you may know we are spending a lot of energy and resources on developing a positive school environment – I need your help - please take a moment to fill in this online survey about your thoughts on HSFI’s school environment.  Taking the survey would be greatly appreciated.  Your child can bring proof of the completed survey (a selfie or confirmation print out) to their major teacher and 50 Fashion Dollars will be deposited into their school account. Thank you so much for taking the time to help us constantly improve our schools climate – we will be examining the results of the survey to help improve our school.  Here is the link to the survey – the link to the survey is also in the ‘Fashion Parents’ section of the school website:

We are always looking for Parent Volunteers to help us.  On Monday, December 4 from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm in our Student Lounge we will be having our annual Blood Drive – if you are interested in donating blood, please come by.  Students will receive 500 Fashion Dollars for each family member that donates blood.  If you are able to volunteer, please contact Assistant Principal Danielle Silva at 212-255-1235 ext. 1251 or email Ms. Silva at dsilva@hsfi.us

Our HSFI App is live – below are the links on this email – the Short cuts for both Apple and Google can be found on the school’s website at the bottom right corner.

It is critically important that all HSFI students check their HSFI email & Jupiter Grades everyday.  We will be sending important information out through these tools – if students do not check them, they will miss out on some valuable opportunities and not know what is going on in the school.

Thank you.
