Introducing TalkSpace - Free to ALL New York City Teens

"Teen mental health crisis is as complex as teens themselves, simple solutions don’t exist. But there’s one thing our therapists know for certain: “Teens are vividly clear in stating their wish for more support, attention, understanding—simply, ‘to have someone in their corner’ or ‘have their back’,”  says Elizabeth Keohan, LCSW-C, LICSW. “This is not ambiguous—teens say it routinely. Their wish amid frustrations is to be heard, but also for someone to take the time to understand."

  1. Send your child to school with a note.  Have your child drop off the note in the morning and fill out the Early Excuse Form in Room 135.
  2. We will call the Parent or Guardian at the phone number in the Student Profile to confirm the early excuse.
  3. Have your child come back to room 135 when it is time for them to leave to pick up the completed Early Excuse Form.  

We cannot allow students to leave early without contacting a  Parent or Guardian.  If your child does not fill out the Early Excuse Form in the morning, this will cause a delay when your child needs to leave.

Information for Students not Placed at Aviation High School

We would like to thank you for your interest in Aviation High School.  Thousands of students applied to our school and we only have capacity for about 500 students.  We wish that we could accept all of our applicants.  Please read the information below to learn more about our admissions programs and to obtain Family Welcome Center contact information for any Admissions Process questions you may have.

Regarding the Waitlist: The NYCDOE placed every student on the Waitlist of every program students ranked above the program they were placed in.  We have 1,000 students on each waitlist.  The NYCDOE also placed 700 students for our 500 seats so it is very unlikely that we will draw from our waitlist.  We are so very sorry that this process is so confusing and has such little transparency.  

Admissions Information:

  • Ranking and selection was conducted by the NYC Department of Education Office of High School Admissions
  • Both Q60A and Q60Q admissions codes represent 250 ninth grade seats each (for a total of 500 students)
  • 16%, or roughly 40 seats per program, are designated for Students with Disabilities (80 total Students with Disabilities and 420 total non-Students with Disabilities)
  • Both programs are screened with ranking based on sixth grade and seventh grade report card grades and sixth grade standardized test scores
  • School administration does not know the details of how students were ranked or selected

For details and appeals, please contact the Office of High School Admissions and the Family Welcome Centers directly.

  1. Office of Admissions by phone 718-935-2009
  2. Office of Admissions by email at HSEnrollment@schools.nyc.gov

'Tis the Season

The winter season coincides with an increase in viruses, stomach bugs and other illnesses within school communities.  If a student becomes ill during the school day, the school nurse will determine, based on the student’s symptoms and the nurse’s professional clinical judgement, if the student needs to go home. School nurses will work with school administrators and supervisors to ensure that students who are not well enough to stay in school are not sent back to class.  Review the link below for tips to stay healthy.

If your child will be absent, kindly email EToyos@Schools.nyc.gov in the Attendance Office and your child's School Counselor 

**********

La Temporada de Enfermarnos está Sobre Nosotros

La temporada de invierno coincide con un aumento de virus, virus estomacales y otras enfermedades dentro de las comunidades escolares. Si un estudiante se enferma durante el día escolar, la enfermera de la escuela determinará, basándose en los síntomas del estudiante y el juicio clínico profesional de la enfermera, si el estudiante necesita irse a casa. Las enfermeras escolares trabajarán con los administradores y supervisores escolares para garantizar que los estudiantes que no se encuentran lo suficientemente bien como para permanecer en la escuela no sean enviados de regreso a clase.  Revise el enlace a continuación para obtener consejos para mantenerse saludable.

Si su hijo estará ausente, comuníquese con EToyos@Schools.nyc.gov  en la Oficina de Asistencia y la Consejero Escolar de su hijo.
