Annual Registration Effort for New or Re-entering Students Runs August 27 - September 12  The New York City Department of Education has opened ten temporary Registration Centers across the five boroughs to make it easy for new students to enroll in school, and assist families who may have enrollment questions. The ten sites - an increase from nine locations last year - include a new location at PS/IS 218 in the Bronx to help ensure that local community needs are met. For the first time, the Department has specially trained staff at each site to help families looking to enroll their child in pre-K. The Department also added more interpreters than in past years to help ensure that families are able to access the information and services they need in a variety of languages.

Starring new talent Isabella Baldi, the video depicts her first day back at school through a musical journey that juxtaposes her dreams and self-doubt. The single titled “Unlimited,” which was released on July 31st, encourages kids to reach for their dreams and unlimited potential.
