March Parent Participation

Dear P.S. 120 Families,


We are excited to continue our monthly Parent Participation Days through 2026. These monthly events allow parents the opportunity to visit your child’s classroom during a morning period of instruction, and to not only observe the lesson but to participate in the curriculum with your child. We also offer a follow-up workshops to help parents gain a deeper understanding of the activities they experienced in the classroom, and how they can reinforce their child’s learning at home. 

On each Parent Participation day, parents will be invited to sign in at the main desk after students arrive (8:10 AM) and gather in the auditorium for a brief opportunity to socialize and review the morning’s schedule.  


For each month's scheduled Parent Participation Day, we will vary the day of the week so that parents can see their child in multiple instructional blocks/with different teachers.Your child's homeroom teacher will send a message on ParentSquare in advance, to let you know the class subject and room number for your visit on Monday, March 16.

Please be mindful that you do NOT photograph or videotape classroom instruction during your visit, as we closely monitor student privacy and media consent. If you would like to review instructional materials after your visit, please contact your child’s teacher and ask for the resource to be shared.


Please RSVP to indicate whether you can join us on Monday, March 16. We look forward to seeing you then! Please remember to bring photo identification to enter the building.
