Passing of Coach Carlesi
by Dina Ingram July 11, 2025

July 11, 2025

Dear Stuyvesant Community, It is with a heavy heart and deep sadness that I share the passing of Coach John Robert Carlesi, Stuyvesant High School’s long-time and beloved baseball coach. Coach Carlesi passed away on July 6, 2025. Since joining Stuyvesant in 2002, Coach Carlesi has left a profound and lasting impact on the lives of thousands of students, families, and colleagues. To many, he was more than just a coach—he was a mentor, a role model, a friend, and even a "superhero." These were roles he embraced with unwavering pride and deep responsibility. Although I only had the privilege of working with Coach for a short time, it was immediately clear how deeply he loved his team and the greater Stuyvesant community. In our most recent conversations, what stood out most was his steadfast dedication—not only to his players’ performance on the field but also to their growth off the field and in the classroom. While he certainly strove for excellence in athletics, what mattered most to him was shaping young men into thoughtful, responsible, and compassionate individuals. There is no greater legacy than the impact we have on others—through our actions, our words, and the way we make people feel. Coach Carlesi lived that legacy each and every day. He embodied the values we hope our students will carry forward: integrity, perseverance, kindness, and humility. Several staff members and I had the honor of attending Coach Carlesi’s services. What struck us most was the overwhelming presence of former and current students who came to pay tribute—each one a living testament to his influence and care. While the room was filled with sorrow, it was equally filled with gratitude, love, and celebration of a life that touched so many. We extend our deepest condolences to his family, and especially to his wife, Diane. I encourage you to take a moment to read Coach Carlesi’s obituary<https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/name/john-carlesi-obituary?id=58821210> <https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/name/john-carlesi-obituary?id=58821210> and reflect on the remarkable life he led. He will be deeply missed, and his legacy will live on in the hearts of those he guided and inspired. Sincerely, Dr. Seung C.

by Dina Ingram June 17, 2025

June 17, 2025

Dear parents and guardians, For the Spring Term 2025, parents/guardians may choose to have any numerical passing grade of 65 or higher updated to a passing grade of “credit” (CR). Grades of “CR” will not be factored into students’ GPAs. If this is the choice you and your child make, you must communicate this request through your parent Talos account on talos.stuy.edu<https://talos.stuy.edu/>. PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. Parents may choose the "CR" option for all courses with a passing grade or for individual courses with a passing grade. You have the right to discuss these options with school staff. Parents/guardians of SENIORS: In order for transcripts to be updated to reflect changes in time to be sent to colleges and institutions with final grades, senior families may review grades using parent Talos accounts as well as parent NYC Schools Accounts at mystudent.nyc beginning on Friday, June 21, 2025. By 4 pm on June 21, we will post grades to Talos under “Grades” and “MP3” for seniors. Grades are being posted as they are submitted by teachers. If you are interested in requesting any passing grade of 65 or higher converted to “CR” to be reflected on transcripts sent to colleges and institutions, these requests must be submitted no later than Wednesday, June 25, 2025, at 12:00 pm (noon) via parent Talos accounts. This is a hard deadline. CR requests made after this deadline will not be reflected on the final transcripts sent to colleges. You must be in 2024-2025 Term 2 in the upper right corner on Talos to see current CR options. Parents/guardians of grades 9-11: You may submit requests for any passing grade of 65 or higher to be converted to “CR” beginning June 26, 2025, when report card grades will be available via email and on Talos and NYC Schools Accounts. Parents/guardians with Talos accounts will also receive report cards via email with comments translated in their written preferred languages. The report cards will be visible in Talos under the “grades” tab in MP3 for 2024-2025 Term 2. Instructions for requesting “CR” in Talos Parent accounts: * Parent/Guardian must log into their Talos account. If a student is 18 years of age, request access via email to ringram3(a)schools.nyc.gov<mailto:ringram3@schools.nyc.gov> * Click “CR List” on the left side bar of your account * Click “create” to select the grades you want to “CR”. * Important: ensure you toggle to ‘School Year 2024-2025 Term 2’ in the upper right hand corner. * Click the course you wish to request a “CR” for in the drop down menu. Any parent who needs assistance accessing their Talos account should contact Ms. Ingram at ringram3(a)schools.nyc.gov. If the student is over the age of 18, they may make the request. Please contact Ms. Ingram for permissions on your Talos account. Parents who need assistance with their NYC Schools Account should contact Ms. Tang at ntang5(a)schools.nyc.gov<mailto:ntang5@schools.nyc.gov>.

Update for Tuesday, May 17 from Principal Yu
by Dina Ingram May 27, 2025

May 27, 2025

Dear Stuyvesant Community, I want to provide a brief update regarding our return to school tomorrow, especially in light of the flurry of information that circulated over the weekend. While we have reported the vandalism, graffiti, and anti-Semitic and racist content found in the boys’ bathrooms to the appropriate authorities, we will continue our own investigation to identify those responsible. Equally important to holding those accountable are the steps we will take to bring our community together. We are exploring learning opportunities for restorative and educational interventions for students, staff, and families. Learning to coexist civilly, respectfully, and inclusively cannot be taken for granted - it is everyone's responsibility. We will work with the district for additional guidance and next steps. Over the past two days, our school has received heightened negative attention online, which has understandably caused anxiety and concern around safety. Out of an abundance of caution, we have been in close communication with the NYPD, and they have assured us of increased support. We will also have additional district staff, more school safety agents, and a visible NYPD presence around the school—including near the bridge and Chambers Street subway station throughout the day. Our administrative team, deans, and support staff will also be actively present throughout the building and surrounding areas to address any concerns should they occur. In addition, all boys’ bathrooms on every floor will be open and available throughout the day. I believe in our students to uphold the expectations we set for one another, and I do not anticipate a repeat of last week's events. Moreover, I expect our young people to report any issues immediately to our school staff if they arise. Finally, let us return tomorrow with a visible sense of responsibility and courage—to ourselves, to one another, and to the values of dignity, inclusion, and mutual respect. Especially today, as we reflect on the meaning of Memorial Day, may we be reminded of the importance of community and shared purpose. Sincerely, Dr. Seung C. Yu Principal Stuyvesant High School Office: 212-312-4800 Fax: 212-587-3874 www.stuy.edu<http://www.stuy.edu/> Follow Stuyvesant on Facebook @StuyNYC or Twitter @StuyNY or Instagram @Stuyvesanths_NYC<https://www.instagram.com/stuyvesanths_nyc/?hl=en> [Outlook-w1ndue2r.png] “This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential or privileged information.

Fw: Important Message from Principal Yu - Please Read
by Dina Ingram May 24, 2025

May 24, 2025

Please excuse the late email. The email below was sent you your child's Stuy.edu email address. Please see below. ________________________________ From: Seung Yu <SYu5(a)schools.nyc.gov> Sent: Friday, May 23, 2025 10:11 PM To: Seung Yu <SYu5(a)schools.nyc.gov> Cc: Brian Moran <BMoran(a)schools.nyc.gov>; Casey Pedrick <CPedrick(a)schools.nyc.gov>; Dina Ingram <RIngram3(a)schools.nyc.gov>; Eric Grossman <EGrossm(a)schools.nyc.gov>; Eric Smith <ESmith42(a)schools.nyc.gov>; Gary Haber <GHaber2(a)schools.nyc.gov>; Gina Paulson <GPaulson(a)schools.nyc.gov>; Jennifer Suri <JSuri(a)schools.nyc.gov>; Marianne Prabhu <MPrabhu(a)schools.nyc.gov>; Scott Thomas <SThomas24(a)schools.nyc.gov> Subject: Important Message from Principal Yu - Please Read Dear Stuyvesant Students, I apologize for this late evening message, but I felt it was important to send to you because of the confusion and misinformation that seems to be spreading. This afternoon, we sent a message regarding the closure of the boys’ bathroom due to recent incidents of vandalism and graffiti. Over the past few days, our custodial team has reported repeated flooding in several boys’ bathrooms. These incidents were caused by toilets and sinks being deliberately clogged with paper, leading to unsafe conditions. We have since learned that this may be part of a social media challenge circulating among students. In addition to the flooding, graffiti—some referencing anime and the clogging itself—was found on the bathroom stalls. Based on these reports, we made the decision to temporarily close the boys’ bathrooms to prevent further damage and ensure student safety. Later this evening, however, I was informed of images in the bathroom that were not previously seen at the time of our initial response. Unfortunately, these new images include anti-Semitic content. I am deeply disappointed and angry that a young person in our school would choose to express such hateful sentiments—especially at a time when our world continues to observe the tragic consequences of hate and violence. Hate is the highest form of cowardice and indiginity. I am so disappointed in the student(s) responsible for the images and embarrassed that someone believes that such behavior is acceptable. It is not. Let me be absolutely clear: any form of hate directed at a person because of their religion, ethnicity, national origin, or identity will not be tolerated at Stuyvesant. I will pursue every appropriate disciplinary action, including consequences for damage to school property and actions that endanger the safety of others. I know that the overwhelming majority of our students strive to create inclusion, dignity, and respect for all, so I will not let the actions of one or very few diminish my pride in our young people. But to all our students, I ask you to be brave enough to voice when you hear, see, or know of actions that do not represent who we are. Displaying courage should not be the exception, but rather the daily expectation for how we act, speak, and engage with one another. We will provide more details on Tuesday morning of the actions we will take for the accessibility of the boys' bathroom. Sincerely, Dr. Seung C. Yu Principal Stuyvesant High School Office: 212-312-4800 Fax: 212-587-3874 www.stuy.edu<http://www.stuy.edu/> Follow Stuyvesant on Facebook @StuyNYC or Twitter @StuyNY or Instagram @Stuyvesanths_NYC<https://www.instagram.com/stuyvesanths_nyc/?hl=en> [cid:576f8393-eca7-4e49-8e77-34f451817597] “This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential or privileged information.
