Dear Parent/Guardians:

 

My name is Licette Galicia, and I am the Parent Coordinator for The Walter H. Crowley School of Leadership at I.S. 5. I am very excited to have this opportunity to work with you and your family! Let me tell you a little about myself. I am a first generation Latina college student. I have a Bachelor of Arts degree in sociology and a Masters of Science degree in school counseling. I was born and raised in Queens and my goal is to use all of my acquired knowledge and experience to provide you, the parents, with the utmost support and information possible.

 

My role as Parent Coordinator is to serve as a facilitator – to bridge the gap between teachers, parents and students, and to help you find answers to the questions that you may be confronted with during the school year. My goal is to make it easier for you to resolve issues at the school level and to help you find the information and services you need to help your child. I am committed to help make this school year as smooth as possible for you and your family.

 

Part of my role as Parent Coordinator is to inform and invite families to school events. I look forward to meeting you all at these school events. Please join us! I remain available to you at your convenience and if you have any questions or concerns, I can be reached at (718) 205-6788 Ext: 2053 and by email @ [email protected] I am here to assist you. If you need information regarding curriculum, school policies, after-school programs, community resources, or any other issue, please feel free to contact me. I hope to hear from you soon!

 

Sincerely,

Licette Galicia
