Career Day at PS 24
Career Day is an annual event that we hold for our
4th and 5th Grade students. This is a great way to
introduce our students to the many opportunities
available to them. They also learn what they will need
to do in order to get these jobs—like staying on task
and getting a good education. We thank our guests
for coming to share their work experiences with our
children. Our thanks also to our Guidance Counselor
Ellen Hochberg for coordinating this event and also
many thanks to our PTA volunteers for coming to facil-
itate the event.
PS 24Q Third Thursday “Parents As Partners” Workshop & PTA Night — Science Fair
This month our focus is on STEM: Science, Technology, Engineer-
ing, and Math. Families who were able to attend the morning
“Third Thursday” workshop were excited to see their child and
classmates explain their science projects—from the initial ques-
tion to the hypothesis, procedure and the conclusion. Then for the
evening PTA meeting, all presentations were made available for
viewing in the gymnasium. This was a good opportunity for our
families to get a better understanding of the work done across all
grades.
Science is all around us and time outside of school presents im-
portant opportunities for continual learning. For a list of summer
activities for families, you can go online to:

CASA at PS 24!
Thanks to special funding from Councilman Peter Koo, PS 24 was able to
offer our first and third grade students an opportunity to work with a pro-
gram called CASA that brought creative artists into our school to recreate
stories with our students! At the end of their sessions with their teaching
artists, they performed their rendition of a story complete with a new song
of their design! They were fun and entertaining performances that we all
enjoyed!
Councilman Koo has also been instrumental in helping to get our air condi-
tioning units and for much of our new technology (lap tops, ipads, smart-
boards). We are forever thankful, because with his support we are able to
better support and teach our students—your children– in helping to make
them successful learners. The next time you see Councilman Koo — give
him a big thank you from PS 24! By the way, did you know Councilman
Koo was sponsoring a
