Welcome to School Year 24-25

A Message From Our Chief Schools Officer

Dear East Scholars Families,

Welcome back to a new school year at East Harlem Scholars Academies!
We hope that your student had a wonderful first week of school! It's been an absolute joy to see our hallways buzzing with energy, curiosity, and the excitement of learning once again. Whether your child is just beginning their journey in Pre-K or gearing up for their final year in high school, we are thrilled to have them with us at East Harlem Scholars Academies.

This year, we are implementing and promoting a change in culture and raising the bar on expectations for our scholars, teachers, and staff. We are also committed to improving our standardized test scores and ensuring they surpass last year's results, reflecting our dedication to academic excellence. To help us meet that goal over the summer our teachers took part in rigorous professional development and training before the school year.

Thank you for your partnership in making this first week a success. Our dedicated educators have been hard at work creating a warm and welcoming environment, and we’re proud of the resilience and enthusiasm our scholars have shown. We know that the beginning of the school year can bring a mix of emotions, and we’re here to support your family every step of the way.

As we continue to build on this strong start, please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Please note that EHTP plans to host regular parent town halls for central leaders to share updates and receive feedback and suggestions from families this year. The first of these will take place at 2050 2ND Ave  at 8:45 am on September 18, 2024.

We’re excited to embark on this new school year together, and we look forward to seeing your child thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. 

Here’s to a fantastic year ahead!
