Dear Parents of future JKO students,

Welcome to the JKO family!!! We are very eager and excited to meet you and your child. We will have the opportunity to meet at our freshman orientation. This event will take place on Saturday, June 6th, from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm. 

The following is the  link to the online registration form: https://forms.gle/qCQDPhkCyAdir3Dk6

At orientation you will learn about our: CTE and academic programs; internships; partnerships; art program; special education services; advanced classes and college level course offerings; mentoring programs; Parent Association and parent workshops; after school activities; theater program; graduation requirements; college readiness; New Student Summer Bridge Program; summer reading assignments; and much, much more! You will also get a welcome package which will include required registration forms.

Please note that we will be offering new students the opportunity to attend our Summer Bridge Program which will take place early July; more information will be forthcoming. All new students will receive an email/mail invitation along with the registration link in during the month of June. We highly recommend new students attend since it is an essential part of making the transition to high school and JKO.

 Please reach out to our Pupil Personnel Secretary, Ms. Bernabel, if you have any questions (ABernabel@schools.nyc.gov). Orientation is a powerful experience for new students and an essential part of making the transition to high school. We look forward to meeting you soon!!!

Sincerely,

Manuel A. Urena, Principal
