Dear New Dawn Community Members,
This is a reminder of the policies regarding COVID safety at NDCHS II. Our first and best defense at the school is our temperature checks, health screening, and mask requirements to enter the building. Student must be wearing a mask to enter, must submit to a temperature check, and complete a daily survey regarding their exposure to COVID / if they are symptomatic themselves.
In the event that you or your student has been exposed to COVID outside of school or is exhibiting symptoms of COVID - they should not be sent to school. Please notify your / your student's mentor or any other New Dawn staff and proceed to schedule a PCR COVID test. Students who have been symptomatic must quarantine and return with a negative PCR test to enter the school again.
For the 2021-22 school year there is no remote learning option available. As such your student should contact their teachers via Jupiter in order to request make-up work during their absence from school or complete it upon their return as with any other absence.
Sincerely,
Mr. Zach Flory, Principal
Please see attached flyer for details!

Good Morning New Dawn,
I hope everyone is having a great weekend. Just a reminder as we begin the second week of classes, it is a B-week which means B-week students will be attending their academic classes from 9am-4pm each day this week while A-week students will be in Internship training from 9am-12:30pm daily. All C-week students will continue 9am-4pm for classes.
If you have not already reported to school for testing and scheduling for Fall 2021, please do so as soon as possible - each day you miss is another day you are falling behind!
Hope to see you all this week!
-Mr. Flory
Charter schools have important obligations to students experiencing homelessness (also referred to as students in temporary housing) under the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, the federal law that sets out the educational rights of such students. We have provided resources on this page explaining our McKinney-Vento Policy, as well as the NYSED McKinney-Vento FAQ.
If you have any further questions, please contact our McKinney-Vento Liaison, Mr. Sanman Thapa, at sthapa@ndchsqueens.org.
