Exceed Families!

Happy Father's Day! We are so thankful to all the fathers, stepfathers, grandfathers, uncles, older brothers, and male guardians for your partnership and for being positive role models for our school community.

As we bring this unique school year to a close, please be reminded that this summer we are offering summer learning opportunities to our families. Please click here to revisit our summer learning letter. There is also more information below on a wonderful program offered through Friends of Crown Heights!

I look forward to seeing you at my next Coffee and Conversation every Wednesday from 6 - 7 p.m. via my Zoom link here.

Thank you for choosing Exceed Lower. It is a privilege to serve you and your family!

Let's RISE!

Complete DOE Family Survey!

Please complete the DOE Family Survey by Friday, June 11! You should have received an email with your scholar's individual code (their OSIS number with a lowercase letter "f" in front of it). Please do one survey per scholar. Visit nycschoolsurvey.org to complete it now!

Prepare to Return Technology and School Materials

All scholars MUST return their Chromebooks, chargers, and any school materials that they have at home (e.g. Skills readers, protractors, rulers, math manipulatives). We will be holding two drop-off days on Wednesday, 6/16 and Thursday, 6/17. Thank you in advance for your support in ensuring we are prepared for Fall 2021!
