Information Technology High School
Dear Info Tech Students and Families,
I hope you had a great first three days! Our Info Tech team continues to be here for you and are supporting with your transition into the 2020-21 academic school year.
Yesterday, the mayor and Chancellor Carranza announced that in person school will now begin on Thursday, Oct. 1, 2020 for high school students. Please take note of this. Remote (online) classes are still fully on and all students must log into JupiterEd daily to engage in learning and to retrieve resources and assignments. A reminder that students must log into each and every class on JupiterEd in order for class and daily attendance to be captured.
Thank you and I look forward to a successful school year!
Warm Regards,
Principal Woods-Powell

Dear Parents/Guardians and Students,
I hope all is well and look forward to a successful start of the school year! As you know, all students will begin remote only learning this Wednesday, Sept. 16, 2020. No students will be taking in person classes this week. This week students will be engaged in an "Instructional Orientation" in which they will learn about the expectations of Information Technology High School, the expectations of each class they are scheduled for, and learn about health/safety measures we are incorporating and great student opportunities. Students will also be acquainted with the online platforms and technology we will use this year. Students should follow the class schedule that is on JupiterEd and log into JupiterEd for each class during the scheduled class times. Teachers will also be sending out introductory notes to their classes in preparation. Here is the time schedule for student classes beginning this Wednesday, Sept. 16, 2020:
On Tuesday, Sept. 15, 2020, there will be two parent/guardian informational sessions (10 a.m. and 6 p.m.) to ensure that all of our parents receive beginning of year information and can ask specific questions to our staff members. Parents are our partners and we want to ensure our parents are up to date with important information to support their child's progress and success. Please see school website for further information along with the JupiterEd messages and robocalls we are sending out. In addition, attached is the most current letter from our school's chancellor, Mr. Richard Carranza.
Please feel free to reach out to our parent coordinator, Ms. Emma Roman Mendoza, at ERomanMendoza@schools.nyc.gov if you have any further questions.
Looking forward to a successful school year!
Sincerely,
Principal J. Woods-Powell
Apreciados Padres/Guardianes y Estudiantes,
Espero que todo este bien y espero un comienzo de año escolar exitoso! Como Ustedes saben, todos los estudiantes comenzarán aprendizaje SOLO REMOTO este Miércoles, 16 Septiembre 2020. Ningún estudiante estará tomando clases en persona esta semana. Esta semana los estudiantes participarán en “Orientación de Aprendizaje” en el cual aprenderán sobre las expectativas de Information Technology High School, las expectativas de cada clase para las que están programados, y aprenderán sobre las medidas de salud/seguridad que estamos incorporando y grandes oportunidades para los estudiantes. Los estudiantes también se familiarizan con las plataformas en línea y tecnología que utilizaremos durante este año. Los estudiantes deben seguir el horario de clases que aparece en JupiterEd y entrar en JupiterEd para cada clase durante las horas programadas. En preparación, los maestros también estarán enviando notas de introducción a sus clases. Aquí esta el horario para las clases de los estudiantes comenzando este Miércoles, 16 Septiembre 2020:
El Martes, 15 Septiembre 2020, habrá dos sesiones de información para los padres/guardianes (10:00 a.m. y 6:00 p.m.) para asegurar que todos los padres/guardianes reciban información sobre principio del año y puedan hacer preguntas específicas a los miembros del nuestro personal. Los padres son nuestros socios y queremos asegurarnos que nuestros padres estén actualizados con información importante para apoyar el progreso y éxito de sus hijos/as. Por favor vea la página web de la escuela para más información, junto con los mensajes de JúpiterEd y llamadas Robocalls que enviamos. Además, adjunto está la carta más reciente de nuestro Canciller, Mr. Richard Carranza.
