MESSAGE FROM THE ADMINISTRATION
April 5, 2020
Dear PS 11 Families,
We pray that this message finds you in the best possible state considering these unprecedented and challenging times we’re in. We would like to update you on a recent development from the NYCDOE that affects how our teachers will be able to interact with your child. The DOE has decided to prohibit the use of Zoom by all DOE staff, effective immediately. Please read this excerpt from the official memorandum from Chancellor Carranza:
The DOE has received requests to credential Zoom for use by faculty, students, and service providers. In the course of its credentialing process, the DOE has received various reports documenting issues that impact the security and privacy of the Zoom platform. Based on the DOE’s review of these documented concerns, the DOE will no longer permit the use of Zoom at this time. DOE staff and service providers should cease using Zoom as soon as possible, and should migrate to Microsoft Teams.
Please be advised that PS 11 teachers will NOT be engaging in real time interaction with students or parents on Monday, April 6 as they will be familiarizing themselves with the Microsoft Teams platform. We aim to have them resume video conferencing with students on Tuesday, April 7. Students should continue to learn remotely by accessing resources and assignments on Google Classroom. Thank you for your understanding and we hope you will join us in thanking our hardworking and diligent teachers and support staff for all they have done and continue to do to ensure a successful remote learning experience.
Warmest Regards,
Rasheda Rand
