Dear Senior Families,

Welcome to the 2020-2021 school year at Stuyvesant. This week, we welcomed students with an introductory grade-wide assembly over Zoom with members of our administration and our Student Union hosted Town Halls with Principal Yu.

You may view the slide deck from our presentation and the recording from September 16, 2020.

Our freshman and sophomores also had the opportunity to meet with School Counselors and their Big Sibs in the afternoon by homeroom.

Classes are underway remotely and will continue through the end of September as the Mayor just announced today! Our calendar will be revised to reflect the first day that blended learners will return to the building will be Thursday, October 1, 2020.
