Welcome Back to School from Our Parent Coordinator

Ms. Gisella Catarine Welcomes You Back to a Brand New School Year

Dear Parent/Guardian:

I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself as the Parent Coordinator of P.S. 211 Elm Tree Elementary.

As a Parent Coordinator, my main goal is to increase family engagement within our school and our community. I am here to serve as a liaison to assist each parent/guardian and student with any concerns or issues that may arise. I understand that Elementary School is an important stage in a child's life and one that is filled with questions, concerns, and excitement. I promise that if I cannot provide an answer to your question or concern that I will connect you with someone who can.

Family engagement is crucial for a child's academic success from Pre-K through the 5th Grade here at Elm Tree Elementary. Our school is committed to creating a welcoming environment and to encourage our families to become active participants in their child's academic journey. By collaborating with your child's school community, you will be establishing a pathway for clear and consistent communication with our school and yourself. An increased level of communication will result in improved academic success for our scholars.

Please visit our school’s website for important news, updates and a plethora of information that you and your child need to be successful during the school year. Families are welcome to email me any of their questions or concerns. My email is [email protected] and my phone number is 929 208-4860 ext. 2146. You are welcome to contact me anytime.

I hope you and your child have a wonderful school year and look forward to working with you by email, phone, or in person. 

Thank you,

Gisella Catarine
