School Supply Drop-Off

Why make your child drag all their school supplies into school on the first day??? 

Make their 1st day of school easier by dropping off their school supplies earlier in the week and we will deliver it to their classroom!

YOU MUST write their first and last name plus grade and class code on all supplies and bags
***Example: Peter Parker, Class 102***
(You can find your child’s class code on their June Report Card at NYC Schools account)

School Supply Drop times at the Main entrance of the school.

  • Tuesday, September 8: Pre-K, Kindergarten, Grade 1 and Grade 2
  • Wednesday, September 9: Grades 3, 4, and 5.   

    ***Drop off Time will be from 8:30am-10am on both days***

❤️ A tremendous thank you to the PS101 PTA for making this happen ❤️
