Message from NYCoRE regarding 2017-2018 school year
Thank you for visiting our website.
Core and Active members are currently meeting to determine what the scope of this year will look like, so member meetings have been put on hold. If you are looking for ways to get involved, we will be hosting a few workshop/events this fall, and in the spring we will have our annual Inquiry to Action Groups, NYCoRE Conference, and an end of the year school party.
Thanks for checking us out.
Feel free to keep checking our website for more information, and/or subscribe to our listserve.
Thanks—
The CORE of NYCoRE
RSVP for NYCoRE’s June Member Meeting
Please join NYCoRE for our end of year celebration! In the first half of this month’s meeting, we will start with a Juneteenth Gallery Walk before having some time for Working Groups to meet and reflect on the 2016-2017 school year. For the latter half of the meeting, we will have dinner together to celebrate the end of the year and to appreciate one another.
Please note that we’re planning on serving alcohol during the latter half of this month’s member meeting. If the presence and consumption of alcohol may require you to not be able to be present, please let us know at hrivera@dreamyard.com and jonathan@brooklynfreeschool.org. We want to celebrate everyone on this special day and understand and support the importance of dry spaces.
