Dear Parkside Preparatory Academy Panther Families,
As your Principal, it is my pleasure to welcome new and returning families to a great year at Parkside Preparatory Academy (PPA). I am thrilled to have students physically back in our classrooms. Our staff eagerly awaits to witness their laugher, energy, and enthusiasm for learning. Since the 2021-2022 school year will have some resemblance of normalcy, our staff looks forward to hosting in-person events including Back to School Evening, Fall Dance, Curriculum Night, and a host of other afterschool events. With the return of these events, it will be an amazing year!
I encourage all our parents to become active members of our PTA and SLT. With your support, our staff and students can have a rich learning experience that includes field trip opportunities.
To stay abreast of all that is taking place at PPA, please be sure to have an updated cell phone number and email address to receive information and be sure to create and/or update your NY Student Account. Also, remember to visit our website and social media platforms regularly for current news and upcoming events.
I’m honored to serve as the principal of Parkside Preparatory Academy. It is great to be a part of a community where students, teachers, and parents care for each other and strive to build meaningful relationships that support academic and social-emotional growth. Feel free to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns at 718-462-6992 or aburnet2@schools.nyc.gov.
I look forward to working with you and assisting each student to meet his or her personal goals.
Panther’s let’s make it an awesome year!
Educationally yours,
Dr. Arlene Burnett
Principal
Parkside Preparatory Academy @ MS 2
