The Fashionable Times Blog Principal's Message 1.21.18

Greetings Fashion Families from your Principal, Daryl Blank.

January Regents will take place from this Monday, January 22 through Friday, January 26.  Check with your child about whether or not they are scheduled to take any exams – Regents exam invitations have been distributed to students.  If students do not have Regents exams, they do not report to school.  A large majority of our students do not have Regents exams – all 11th graders are taking the English Regents and students who previously were not successful on exams or want to get a higher grade, have the opportunity to take exams again. 

When students come to school for these Regents exams they should bring: (1) Exam ticket (2) Student identification card and (3) 2 pencils and 2 pens.  It is important that students DO NOT BRING ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT INTO THEIR TESTING ROOM. We tell students to put their electronic equipment in their lockers before their exam.  The presence of this electronic equipment with your child will result in their score being invalidated and given a 0 on the exam.  This electronic equipment policy is New York State law.  Please contact anyone of our Assistant Principals—Ms. Moore (English); Mr. Kohm (Math); Mr. Rodrigues (Social Studies); Ms. Frank (Science) - if you have any specific questions about these exams.  If your child does not have an exam on a particular day, they do not have to report to school on that day.

The Spring term starts on Tuesday, January 30.

We are always looking for Parent Volunteers to help us.  The HSFI Parents Association has decided to do monthly bake sales to raise money for the organization and they need help for these fundraisers.  The bake sales will go from 10:30 am – 1:00 pm on the following dates: Tuesday, February 13; Friday, March 23; Friday, April 27; and Friday, May 25.  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

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!
