Greetings Fashion
Families from your Principal, Daryl Blank.
First of all, Happy
Mother’s Day to all of our HSFI Moms!
We have 4 weeks of classes left before
Regents examinations as the school year winds down. Make sure your children know this and
appreciate the importance of finishing the school year strong. Students must understand the grades that they
receive in June will be the ones that colleges will see.
It was great to see so many Fashion
Families at our annual Fashion Show this past Friday. The Fashion Show was awesome – all of our
students involved in the show should be so proud. HSFI looked great between the Fashion Show in
our air-conditioned auditorium, our entire lobby decorated with amazing pieces
of art from our senior art show and the fashion show window displays up.
I want to invite you all to the next edition of our Fashion Show
that is on Tuesday, May 22, 2018 at 7:00 pm. This version of the show is different from
this past Friday’s show – this show on the 22nd will run a half
hour. This show is sponsored by our
Advisory Board which is the group of fashion industry professionals that look
out for the school. This year’s show
will honor famous fashion
designer Nanette Lepore. We are so
excited to invite all Fashion students and families to this show – you can
attend whether you did not get to see the show this past Friday or if you want
to see it again. Admission is free for
everyone.
For the
upcoming school year, I am super excited to announce that we will have an
organization called ‘Teen Choice’ at HSFI.
Teen Choice offers a wide variety of student services including; supportive
individual and group counseling; peer leadership
opportunities; parent and youth workshops; managing your money support; summer
youth employment opportunities; a sexual health curriculum; and college preparation services to fill
out financial aid and college applications.
Representatives from Teen Choice will be at HSFI this week on Wednesday,
May 16 from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm in the student lounge and cafeteria. This is so exciting to have Teen Choice here at
HSFI in addition to all the support the school provides along with other
organizations that are part of Fashion Industries like the Falcon Health Center
and Relationship Abuse Prevention Program.
Our May Parent
Association Meeting and Parent Association Elections for next school year will
take place on Wednesday, May 23, 2018, at 6:00 p.m. in the Student Lounge, Room
829. The HSFI Parent Association will be holding Parent Association Executive
Board elections for the following positions; PA President, PA Vice President,
PA Treasurer, and School Leadership Team members. If you are interested in running for a PA
Executive Board position or nominating another HSFI parent, please visit the
website link under Parent News section on the HSFI homepage, www.fashionhighschool.net. Descriptions of the Parents Association
positions are on the website link. Here

One more operational note
is that on Tuesday, June 4, we will be administering the new Global History
Regents Exam to our 10th graders.
There will be no regular classes on this date and only the students
taking this exam will be in attendance.
Thank you!
