Welcome Summer
HR logo

What a year! I am so honored to be the principal of Helendale Road Primary School. Since starting in January, students, staff and families have shown what an amazing place this is. Students are our priority each day and we try to make their experiences at school meaningful. I am proud of the learning that has happened during the 23-24 school year!

I hope this summer brings you all time to relax and recharge. Please remember to read with your children, play math games and just enjoy time together. We look forward to seeing you in the fall!

Drop Off and Pick Up Concerns

Left Turn

When picking up PreK students at the end of the day, please remember you must turn left out of the parking lot onto Westchester Ave. We have many cars turning right and passing buses with lights on, that are loading students. The new county bus patrol cameras can now take pictures of cars passing busses and issue citations. Please make sure you are turning left so you do not receive a citation. They can be avoided!

Also, please note that when the small parking lot by the playground is full, you may not create spots next to the sidewalk and on the grass. It blocks our small bus from dropping off students. Please follow the line of cars on Westchester to pull into the drop off zone, or park on a side street if you would like to walk your child to the front door! Thank you for helping us keep all students safe!

COVID 19 Updates

Individuals can go back to normal activities when, for at least 24 hours, both of the following are true: Symptoms are getting better overall, and they no longer have a fever without the use of fever-reducing medication. Please reach out if you have any questions.

Note From Ms. Zaffuto

Cold and flu season is upon us. Please read the message from Nurse Zaffuto to know when to keep your child home.

Please make sure to call your pediatrician to schedule a yearly physical if you have not done so already.

New York requires all school age children to be up to date on immunizations. Students have 14 days from the first day of school to have immunizations completed. All children who will turn 5 years of age during the school year will also need to follow these guidelines and have 14 days, starting on their 5th birthday, to have updated immunizations completed.

Please see the attached link and flyer for more information.

If your child needs to have emergency or daily medication here at school, contact the health office for further information. Please do not send any medication in with your child, a responsible adult needs to be present for all medication drop-offs/pick-ups.
