Introduction to NYC Public Elementary Schools

Join us for an introduction to the NYC Public Elementary Schools, hosted by Trinity’s Children and Families Education Subcommittee. Pamela Wheaton, a founder of InsideSchools.org, will give a talk to families with young children who are getting ready to apply to public 3-K, Pre-K, and kindergarten.
She'll cover such questions as:
- At what age is my child eligible for free public school?
- How do I find a 3-K program?
- Is my child guaranteed a full-day pre-k program?
- How do I find a good elementary school?
Pamela will discuss the different types of elementary schools and programs including Dual Language, Gifted & Talented, Zoned Schools, Unzoned Schools, and Charter Schools. In 2002, Pamela was one of the founders of Insideschools.org where she was a writer, managing editor, and director. She now helps parents navigate the NYC public school system, from 3-K to high school at SchoolScoutNYC.com.
This event will be held on Zoom. Bring your questions!
