The Fashionable Times Blog Principal's Message 12.17.17

Greetings Fashion Families from your Principal Daryl Blank.

This is the last week of school until our Winter Break – every day of instruction is important so make sure students are making them count!  All students come back to school on Tuesday, January 2.  Once we get back from vacation, we will have 3 full weeks of school until the Fall term ends where teachers submit their final grades that colleges and universities will see.  January Regents will take place the week of January 22. 

It was great to see so many parents at HSFI this past week for our Holiday Windows Unveiling Ceremony as part of our partnership with Barney’s NY.  I recommend that you try to come by the school to see these windows that represent the Fashion Capitals of the World. 

Just a reminder that we have begun a Fashion Dollars Bonus Program for students who are on time to school.  All students are eligible for the Fashion Dollar Bonus Program. For each day students are on time to school (as determined by them swiping in with their ID card each morning), they will receive $5 Fashion Dollars.  But wait, there's more!  For each day in a row they are on time, they will receive bonus Fashion Dollars. The more students are on time, the more Fashion Dollars they will receive.

We are always looking for Parent Volunteers to help us.  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

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:

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.

Keywords - “the high school of fashion”

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.
