I.S. 281 Joseph B. Cavallaro Home

Good afternoon Cavallaro families,

All of our students will receive an important notice to bring home today, providing you with information to access PRACTICE (see attached flyers in different languages).

Just a reminder, in the event that it becomes necessary to Pivot to Remote Instruction due to weather or any other unforeseen event, it will be necessary for your child to have a digital device to access their instruction for that day from home.

Good afternoon Cavallaro families,

We celebrated the first day of Autumn today, with some chillier than normal weather. The leaves will be changing soon and air becoming crisp, so please make sure your child dresses accordingly.

Students will engage in following activities: 3D Printing, Lego WeDo, Lego EV3, Hydroponics, Flight Simulators.

The Cavallaro STEM program with a concentration in Technology will focus on several major concepts relating to STEM and building 21st Century skills.

STEM ENGINEERING at IS 281 is all about preparing you for the Challenges of the Future.  Students learn and implement the Engineering Design Process in their everyday lives.

The STEM Math Talent Program is a perfect opportunity for students to learn about financial literacy, investing and entrepreneurship.

Through a formal study of a range of styles, techniques and genres, including their own social dances, students expand their perception of dance and demonstrate a variety of skills.

Students learn the fundamental building blocks of art and how it relates to all art media. Those that have prior experience with art will have opportunities to advance their level to suit individual needs, while beginners will be able to accomplish new goals.

Our Athletics talent program is aligned with the New York State Learning Standards for Physical Education.
