Broadway Stages Makes Huge Donation!
Gina and Tony Argento from Broadway Stages presented us with a $5,000 check! This incredibly generous donation will go towards purchasing new audio equipment. Broadway Stages is a local Greenpoint gem and one of New York's largest full-service film, television, and music production facilities. For over 25 years, they have provided artists with a space in which to create. And now, they have given the students of SSKCA these same tools to express themselves artistically. Thank you, Broadway Stages!

 Camp is a GO! Please visit our information session to meet the teachers and learn about the program.

We will also have daily outdoor play (with sprinklers!) at the local park along with our on-site playground. This program will be managed by Assistant Principal Enid Rodriguez and is limited to 24 children with 3 adult supervisors. Please email Enid Rodriguez at erodriguez@ststansacademy.org with questions.

STUDENT NEWS
Grade 2 Visits the Museum!
The Brooklyn Children's Museum inspires children to use their imaginations to better understand their environments, cultures, and communities. At the Museum, students explored various plant and animal exhibits, learned about a special folktale, and were engaged through active play by visiting a variety of neighborhood shops from all around the world. It was a very rewarding learning experience for everyone!
