Principal's Holiday Message

Happy holidays to everyone in our Raider family. May the New Year bring you joy and success, both in the classroom, and with everything you do.

Port Richmond Shocked and Saddened By The Tragedy of Connecticut

Along with the rest of the nation, our Raider community was shocked and saddened to hear of the tragic news from the Sandy Hook School in Connecticut. This morning, Principal Gannon observed a moment of silence that spoke more eloquently than anything we could say in our heartbreak and confusion. Mr. Gannon asked all Raiders to join him tomorrow in wearing the Sandy Hook School's colors of green and white, and added that we are all "one Port," and will continue to work together to keep all Raiders safe.

Happy Hanukkah

The staff of the Crow's Nest would like to wish all Raiders a happy and healthy Hanukkah!

Happy Thanksgiving!

This Thanksgiving, there is a lot to be thankful for. Many families are still reeling from the effects of Hurricane Sandy, and those of us who are able to celebrate the holiday should do what we can to help those in need. So as you sit with your loved ones this year, be sure to appreciate what you have even more than on the usual Thanksgiving. Enjoy the delicious food and the fun, and remember how truly fortunate you are. The Crow's Nest staff wishes all Raiders and their families a wonderful holiday.

Hurricane Sandy Wreaks Havoc Across Staten Island

As a result of Hurricane Sandy, the tri-state area now faces extreme devastation. We were glad to see our  Raiders return to school, and we're hoping that all of our Raider family are safe after this devastating storm. Many Staten Islanders are still recovering from the effects of the hurricane, and it can be very helpful to donate food, clothing, and blankets to those in need. We will be reporting on any steps our school is taking to assist the many who are in need as a result of the storm. In these trying times, it's important for all Staten Islanders to come together and show their support for their community. Our Raider community stands behind all recovery efforts, and in particular those which will aid our Raiders in need. Be sure to look for our continuing coverage of the effects of Hurricane Sandy on our school community.

NYC Braces For Hurricane Sandy

On Monday, October 29th, the tri-state area is expected to be hit with a major hurricane. Mayor Bloomberg has already closed all New York City public schools, and has called for all public transportation to be shut down by seven pm, indicating that Hurricane Sandy should not be taken lightly. The worst of Sandy is expected to come tomorrow, so use today to prepare yourselves for the impending storm. The staff of the Crow's Nest is hoping that everyone in the Raider family remains safe and sound.
