News & Announcements

  • P.S. 241 READING CHALLENGE!

    On April 15th, we launched our 2nd annual reading challenge! Last year, we raised over $12K and read 220,000+ minutes. We're looking to surpass those numbers this year! The students are excited and have begun reading and logging their minutes. Will you match their efforts by giving to support future literacy programming like afterschool writing workshops and author visits? https://givebutter.com/ps-241-read-a-thon-lwdeup/ps241
    Know that if you choose to give, you'll be joining our Literacy Champion, actress and author, Kristen Bell, who kickstarted our campaign with a generous $5,000 donation!
     
    Challenge ends on April 29th.
