In case anyone is interest there is a new middle school (75 Morton Middle School in Community Board 2) here is the information.
Please save the date for our next 75 Morton Community Alliance meeting on Friday, April 17 from 9-10 a.m. We will meet in Community Board 2’s conference room, 3 Washington Square Village, Suite 1A. For a map, visit here.
With 75 Morton set to open September 2017, we need parent leaders like you to get involved! The push for 75 Morton started way back in 2007 when local parents and community leaders first advocated for a new middle school. Some of the children of these families are now in college! As you can imagine, we are constantly recruiting new parents to the 75 Morton Community Alliance (75MCA.) We are now focused on parents with children in third grade or younger and hope that you can help us get the word out within your communities!
