School Reopening Parent Survey - Share your views!

The Brooklyn Latin School administration will be hosting a series of roundtables as it plans for an anticipated full reopening of school in September. Many of you joined us last week to share your views on lessons from remote learning that should be considered in reopening. We invite all parents and guardians to respond to this short survey by Friday, April 16 to let us know your thoughts on questions such as:


· Which of the many new systems and changes rolled out during the pandemic have worked well during remote learning?

· What systems and practices that worked well during remote learning should we consider implementing as we return to in-person school? What would need to change to implement those things? Are there tradeoffs?

· What do we value about our school that has been difficult to implement online?


The TBLS school reopening roundtables will include representatives from each school constituency: magistri (teachers), discipuli (students) and families. At the roundtables, parents and guardians will be represented by three of our elected representatives: Liam Murphy (SLT parent member), Paulina Rodolphe-Richards (SLT parent member) and Cynthia McKnight (PA Co-First Vice President). You can reach them with any questions by emailing contact@brooklynlatinpa.org


We will discuss additional fall reopening roundtable topics at our May 6 and June 3 Parents' Nights Out. Mark your calendar!
