Little Brooklyn values parent engagement ! A special thank you to  our P.A.C. for producing such amazing work from school merchandise , to parent led school activities, to delicious bake sales and fundraisers! All of this was made possible because of our PAC. Fun fact: Every parent or guardian with a registered child at LBPKC is automatically a member of the PAC . Even though we have four sites, we are one PAC , and we truly love and celebrate our diverse community of families. We welcome all ideas ! Interested in getting involved ? Please contact our parent coordinator , Yaasmeen Brown at ybrown17@schools.nyc.gov. In the meantime check out all the amazing things our parents have been up to!

Congratulations to our artist, Penelope Cando, for having her work featured in the Brooklyn Borough Arts Festival! Penelope created her own assemblage using recycled materials to mimic the use of found objects. Her artwork is inspired by Louise Nevelson, the pioneer of monochromatic assemblage.

LBPKC has five sites, but we are ONE school filled with love, connection, and community!
