The NYC Department of Education is working on plans for re-opening school buildings in the 2020-21 school year and is currently exploring various options based on available guidance from public health experts. We want your feedback to understand what is most important to you!
We are all hoping that the coronavirus pandemic will end soon. However, we need to prepare for the possibility that it will continue into September 2020 and beyond. Please fill out this survey assuming health and safety measures like social distancing are still in place.
Your answers to this survey are anonymous and confidential and you can skip any question you are not comfortable answering or that may not apply to your child. If you have more than one child in your family, we recommend filling out this survey for each child.

Updated Grading Policy
The grading policy outlined below is in effect for the remainder of the 2019-20 school year only. Teachers will base students’ final grades on a holistic review of their progress before and after we started remote learning. Attendance will not be a factor in students’ grades. No student will receive a failing final grade.
9th – 12th grade
Your school’s existing grading scale applies, but no failing grade will be issued. A “Course in Progress” (NX) will be issued instead. After final grades have been issued, students and families have the option to convert any or all passing Spring Semester 2020 final grades to pass (CR will be the symbol used in this case). Any CR grade will not be factored into a students’ GPA.

Remote Learning Enviroment using Google classrooms
Due to the NYC school closures, we are currently setting up remote learning environments for all classes. Students will be able to access their classes through google classroom. All students can log on to their Brooklyn Academy Gmail account using the first letter of their first name and their entire last name followed by @brooklynacademyhs.org (for example, John Smith would have an email address as jsmith@brooklynacademyhs.org.) The students password is their OSIS number. All students should know their OSIS number. If not, it is on their ID card, report card, and transcripts. If any students have trouble logging into their gmail account, they can email Mr. Ashe at dashe@schools.nyc.gov
