in the Annex lobby from 7:50 – 9:00am. The PA will be selling tickets only on these two dates. Tickets are first come first served. $3 per person. If you have children in multiple grades, please choose one party to attend as a family.
(Due to space limitations we have a one adult per family policy. We also ask that you only bring children who attend PS99 for this reason. Thank you for your understanding. See you on December 7th!)
Learn the ABCs of the PA, and find out about upcoming events and volunteer opportunities that make 99 a special place for your child!
Some scenes from last night’s Bake Sale and Coat Fair. Thank you to all the parents and friends who brought in delicious baked goods, donated money and winter clothing to the effort!
Proceeds from the bake sale will be directed to help teachers’ classroom wish lists. We’ve distributed a good amount of clothing, and will send the left over gear to the local shelter.
We really appreciate everyone’s generosity, and are especially thankful for the parent volunteers who helped with setting up, selling, and cleaning up. PS 99 is truly lucky to have such a caring community!
A hearty thank you to everyone who has donated winter clothing to the coat drive. We will be setting up the distribution tables today during Parent-Teacher Conference hours in the Main Building (1-3pm & 5-7pm).
PS 99 families: please feel free to stop by and see if there are any items you can use. There are coats, sweaters, pants, vests, shirts, boots, and winter accessories available.
Hey parents! The PA Bake Sale is happening Thursday during Parent Teacher Conferences, and we need your help!
