As you know, the Superintendent of Schools Office and the Inner City Scholarship Fund are working to secure every possible benefit for our families during these challenging times.
As you visit CatholicSchoolsNY.org, you will see additional resources and benefits updated on a regular basis. In particular, with this communication, we wanted to share that we are advocating for every child who may need a computer or chromebook whose family is unable to secure one. Thanks to generous donors and government funds, we are hopeful that we may be able to assist those who need it most. We have already loaned out some devices from our schools to families to meet the immediate needs.
Later today, you will receive a phone call to your home phone number, and if there is no answer today, we will call your cell phone tomorrow, asking you about access to computers and/or a chromebook in your home for your son(s) or daughter(s). Please respond to the automated telephone survey; there is no other way to participate in this survey.
Below are the questions that will be asked, so you have a copy in advance of the call.
Thank you for participating! The Superintendent of Schools Office has many updated resources for our families listed on our website: CatholicSchoolsNY.Org.
Wishing you and your family a blessed Holy Week and Happy Easter!
Sincerely yours,
Mr. Michael J. Deegan Superintendent of Schools Archdiocese of New York
