Remote Learning Program

3/31/2020

 
Opportunity Charter School
​Published March 31, 2020
Dear Parents/Guardians,
We hope that you and your families are healthy and well.  Our remote learning program is up and running and the students are making progress each day!  As we want to remain a strong community, please share pictures and/or videos of your students to krystal.vazquez@ocsny.org  as your student(s) participate in remote learning and follow our Instagram (@opportunitycharterschool_ocs), Facebook (Opportunity Charter School) and Twitter pages (@ocsny). We certainly miss working, in person, with your students each day.  
We also wanted to take a moment to share some important information.  Please see below:

  • Mrs. McCaw (Middle School Principal) is back from maternity leave and can be reached for any questions through the following: 917-414-2513 (call or text) OR Email: sade.mccaw@ocsny.org
  • Ms. Francis (High School Principal) can be reached for any questions through the following: 845-321-3823 (call or text) OR Email: kaitlin.francis@ocsny.org 
  • Mrs. Cicerchia (Director of Student Support Services) can be reached for any mental health questions, concerns or emergencies through the following: 646-825-0948 (call or text) OR Email: marsha.cicerchia@ocsny.org 
  • All middle school state exams (ELA, Math and Science) have been cancelled by the Department of Education. 
  • We know that many of you are inquiring about High School Regents exams, and at this time no decisions have been made by the NYS Department of Education regarding June Regents administration. We will alert you as soon as a decision is made regarding this matter. 
  • OCS is still following the academic calendar outlined on our website unless the Department of Education makes any changes based on the current circumstances.
  • We know that this is a brand new experience for our students and for yourselves. We highly suggest that you have your child follow their regular schedule each day in order to keep organized. For example, if your child has ELA from 8:00-8:57 they should be working on that Google Classroom assignment at that time. 

While we are aware of the difficulty with navigating online learning, the completion of assignments is not optional, rather it is mandatory and will affect your student’s academic outcome.  Please remember that you are connected to the OCS community!

​Please utilize our 
OCS directory to reach out to staff when needed. 


Please continue to stay safe and healthy during this ongoing crisis,
Jessica Marcu, Head of School        
Sade McCaw, Middle School Principal 

Kaitlin Francis, High School Principal
Marsha Cicerchia, Director of Student Support Services
Estimados padres/tutores
Esperamos que usted y sus familias estén sanos y saludables. ¡Nuestro programa de aprendizaje remoto está en funcionamiento y los estudiantes progresan cada día! Como queremos seguir siendo una comunidad fuerte, comparta fotos y/o videos de sus alumnos a krystal.vazquez@ocsny.org  mientras sus alumnos participan en el aprendizaje remoto y siguen nuestro Instagram (@opportunitycharterschool_ocs), Facebook (Opportunity Charter School) y Twitter páginas de(@ocsny). Ciertamente extrañamos trabajar, en persona, con sus estudiantes cada día.  
También queríamos tomarnos un momento para compartir información importante. Vea a continuación: 

  • La Sra. McCaw (Directora de la Escuela Intermedia) regresó de la licencia de maternidad y puede comunicarse con ella para cualquier pregunta a través de lo siguiente: 917-414-2513 (llamada o mensaje de texto) O Correo electrónico: sade.mccaw@ocsny.org
  • La Sra. Francis (Directora de La Escuela Secundaria) puede ser contactada para cualquier pregunta a través de lo siguiente:  845-321-3823 (llamada o texto) O Correo electrónico: kaitlin.francis@ocsny.org 
  • Puede comunicarse con la Sra. Cicerchia (Directora de Servicios de Apoyo Estudiantil) para cualquier pregunta, inquietud o emergencia de salud mental a través de lo siguiente: 646-825-0948 (llamada o mensaje de texto) O Correo electrónico: marsha.cicerchia@ocsny.org 
  • Todos los exámenes estatales de secundaria (ELA, Matemáticas y Ciencias) han sido cancelados por el Departamento de Educación. 
  • Sabemos que muchos de ustedes están preguntando acerca de los exámenes Regentes de la escuela secundaria, y en este momento no se han tomado decisiones con respecto a la administración de los Regentes de junio. Le avisaremos tan pronto como se tome una decisión con respecto a este asunto. 
  • OCS sigue el calendario académico que se describe en nuestro sitio web, a menos que el Departamento de Educación realice cambios basados ​​en las circunstancias actuales.
  • Sabemos que esta es una experiencia completamente nueva para nuestros estudiantes y para ustedes mismos. Sugerimos encarecidamente que haga que su hijo siga su horario regular todos los días para mantenerse organizado. Por ejemplo, si su hijo tiene ELA de 8:00 a 8:57, debería estar trabajando en esa tarea de Google Classroom en ese momento. 

Somos conscientes de la dificultad de navegar en el aprendizaje en línea, el cumplimiento de las tareas no es opcional, sino que es obligatorio y afectará el resultado académico de su estudiante. ¡Recuerde que está conectado a la comunidad OCS!

Utilice nuestro 
directorio OCS para comunicarse con el personal cuando sea necesario. 

Continúe manteniéndose segura y saludable durante esta crisis actual,

Jessica Marcu, Directora de la Escuela         
Sade McCaw, Directora de la Escuela Intermedia     
Kaitlin Francis, Directora de la Escuela Secundaria 
Marsha Cicerchia, Directora de Servicios de Apoyo Estudiantil
