Dear Brooklyn Tech Parents and Guardians,

Thank you to the parents/guardians who have joined us for one of our breakfasts or dinners with Mr. Newman. This special event is an opportunity to meet the principal, connect with other parents, ask questions, and engage in meaningful dialogue about our children’s education while enjoying a meal together. As a reminder, this event only takes place in the fall semester, so register today if you haven’t already done so! 

​

We are excited to announce that we have partnered with UNIDOS, the BTHS Latino Student Union, to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month. First, students are welcome to join UNIDOS this Thursday, October 9, at 4pm in the BTHS Library for fun cultural festivities. Then, students and parents are welcome to attend a book panel featuring Latino authors, followed by a tango lesson next Thursday, October 16, beginning at 4pm.

​

Our next General PA Meeting will follow on Thursday, October 16, at 6pm in the BTHS Library. Latin cuisine will be served, and we’ll elect up to five Freshmen Parent Reps to join the PA Executive Board. Freshmen parents interested in running for a board position must complete a Nomination Form by Tuesday, October 14, at 11:59pm. Nominations will not be taken from the floor. The Assistant Principal of Health and Safety, Ms. Lisa Iacono, will also speak.

​​​​​

We invite all BTHS students to participate in our annual Lunar New Year T-Shirt Design Competition. The winning design will be used for commemorative T-shirts for the Year of the Horse, and the winner will receive 2 free admissions tickets to the 9th Annual Lunar New Year Celebration. For best results, we ask that you use a vertical layout. Submissions must be sent to BthsDiversityCommittee@bths.edu no later than November 2. We look forward to seeing all of the students’ lovely artwork!

​

​Sincerely,

Tiffany Roberts & Kim Jalet
