Welcome From Your Parent Coordinator

Welcome to the MS 447 Community. My name is Amy Sirot, and I am the Parent Coordinator. I’m always happy to meet, talk by phone or exchange emails. I can be reached at 718-330-9328 or asirot@ms447.org.

A few helpful facts:

  • The first day of school is Thursday, September 5.
  • The school day runs from 8:30am to 2:50pm. Doors open at 8:10am.
  • All students enter through 500 Pacific Street
  • 6th graders exit on Dean Street, near 3rd Avenue
  • Breakfasts and lunches are free and available to all students.
  • Except when noted, all parents enter the school through 345 Dean Street. You will be asked for photo identification when you enter.
  • Our pupil accounting secretary, Ms. Diaz, handles attendance and transportation. She can be reached at 718-330-9328 or mdiaz@ms447.org
  • Students may not leave on their own before the end of the school day. If they need to leave early, a parent or someone on the emergency contact form must come to the office to sign them out.
  • There is free afterschool for all students. It is 5 days a week, and your child does not need to come every day or stay for the entire time. You will get information about our afterschool program in September.

I’m looking forward to getting to know you and your children. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
