School Clocks
PNA clocks now reflect the correct time. All staff
members should ensure they are signing-in by 8:00 so they are not marked late.

if you have questions.

Update to School Calendar
This week the Chancellor announced that there would be an update to the
school calendar as a result of school closures after Hurricane Sandy. All
schools will hold full-day sessions from Wednesday, February 20, through
Friday, February 22, which were previously scheduled as part of mid-winter
recess. Contact Ms. Cook (scook@pablonerudaacademy.org)
if you have questions.

Regents Scoring Per Session Applications (REMINDER)
January Regents exams administered at high schools
will be scored under a new distributed scoring model. Under this model, scoring
of 7 exams (Algebra 2/Trigonometry, Geometry, Global History & Geography,
Physical Setting/Chemistry, Physical Setting/Earth Science, Physical
Setting/Physics, and US History and Government) will be completed through
centrally administered per session activities. Per session postings (#77-79,
#92-97) for these exams have been published. The deadline to apply for postings
#77-79 is November 26; the application deadline for the other positions
is December 26. Applications must be submitted through the online application portal found at the following link: https://www.nycenet.edu/offices/dhr/regents/.

Issuing Passes (REMINDER)
As a reminder and as stated in the PNA Staff
Handbook, “Students are not permitted to
use the restrooms during the first and last 10 minutes of class or during the
change of period”. This policy applies to students needing a pass for any
reason (water, etc.). Please ensure you are not issuing any passes during the
first or last ten minutes of each class period. Contact Mr. Liu (dliu@pablonerudaacademy.org) if you have questions.
…
Student Removals (REMINDER)
As stated in the staff handbook, “Every student is entitled to receive an
education. Some students have bad days and will act out in class. When this
occurs the appropriated interventions must be put into place…” Student
removals are warranted “if a student is
behaving in a manner that is extremely disruptive to the educational process
and prevents the learning of others.” Please note that students should not
be removed for being unprepared for school, having no homework or classwork,
coming late to class, talking out or talking without permission, chewing gum,
sitting in the wrong seat or changing seat without permission, throwing paper
across the room, refusal to do work, cursing, fooling around, or wearing a coat
and hat. As stated in the PNA Staff Handbook: “These are all examples of
unacceptable behavior and should not go unaddressed.” All infractions should be
addressed and entered into Skedula. Contact Mr. Liu (dliu@pablonerudaacademy.org) if you have questions.
…
Hurricane Sandy Relief Collection (REMINDER)
PNA is partnering with the Bronx UFT Office and
collecting toys, linens, and toiletries to be donated to victims of Hurricane
Sandy. Donated items should be placed in the boxes outside of Ms. Lopez’s
cubicle in the main office. PNA is also partnering with New York Cares in order
to support their goal of collecting 200,000 coats for hurricane victims. Please
see Mr. Barnes for more information on coat donation. Additionally, see Ms.
Lopez if you would like information on the UFT’s disaster relief volunteer
opportunities.
…
Per Session Timesheets (REMINDER)
As you know, our budget is extremely tight this
year, and the school has less money available for per session activities. As a
result, we are very closely monitoring these funds. In order for us to
accurately monitor this money, it is imperative that per session time sheets
are submitted on time. Please be advised that in order to stay eligible for per
session activities, you must submit time sheets on time. Arrangements will need
to be made with Ms. Cook in order to submit a time sheet after the deadline.
Contact Ms. Franqui (gfranqui@pablonerudaacademy.org) if you have
any questions.
