📣 Voting on Candidates for the SLT
Do you want to have a direct impact on the academic goals of PS20? The School Leadership Team (SLT) consists of PS 20 family members (parents, grandparents, guardians), staff members and Admins. Members are elected for 2-year positions by their peer group — at the next PTA meeting — and then meet monthly to read, review, and discuss the school’s Comprehensive Education Plan (CEP). The CEP is a set of goals individualized for our school such as attendance, test scores, etc. and is a living document, meaning it grows and changes throughout the year with the DOE and SLT’s input. When we look at the goals, we work collaboratively to find the best possible ways to meet the goals with our unique community in mind.
Interested in joining the SLT? Email board@ps20.org by March 15.

The Brotherhood Dinner at PS20 was started almost 20 years ago during Black History Month to promote family, unity, community, and to celebrate the African diaspora. By sitting down together at the table for a shared meal, the Brotherhood Dinner honors the diversity of our community and helps us to understand each other better as we work on achieving the same goals for all of our children.
This year, classes will be sharing their tributes to Black History and Brotherhood through performances, class presentations, poems and visual art. Parents are invited to join classroom presentations, performances in the Auditorium as well as share food and company in the Cafeteria.
Parents are encouraged to bring food contributions and sign-up for volunteer opportunities - more details will be posted on Konstella!
Our next PTA General Membership Meeting is Thursday, February 9, 2023 from 6-8PM (changed from Thursday, February 16, 2023). This month our PTA meeting will be fully virtual. We will look to go back to the hybrid format in the coming months. PTA meetings are an opportunity to learn about what is going on at PS 20, ask Ms. Barbera and/or the PTA Board any questions you have and learn how to get involved.
If you have any questions or items you want to make sure are covered on the agenda, please feel free to email board@ps20.org. We hope you will join us!
