Free Programs
New York City offers children and teens a wide range of after-school and summer activities--from paid museum internships to free science research programs. The free and low cost programs listed here are a great way to explore new interests, get extra support, and supplement what is being taught during the school day. The list is not exhaustive and we welcome new listings.
Contact DOE
Contacting the Department of Education is like calling any huge bureaucracy: You have to follow a lot of prompts before getting to a real person. Once you do reach someone, we’ve found that the operators are knowledgeable and helpful. Our advice: pleasant persistence. Keep trying and you will eventually get the information you need. We've compiled a list of telephone numbers and emails that may be useful.
Main switchboard
The Department of Education website is schools.nyc.gov. The main switchboard number is (718) 935-2200. Open Monday–Friday, 8 am to 6 pm.
311
For general information about your school zone, enrollment, pre-kindergarten registration and gifted and talented programs that you can’t find on the DOE’s website, call 311 and say “schools”, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The operators are unfailingly polite and try their best to answer your questions.
Enrollment
Routine enrollment issues should be resolved at one of the city’s 14 Family Welcome Centers. It’s difficult to find the phone number for a particular center but calling the Parent Support Line should get your through to one of them. If you have a problem that the Family Welcome Center can’t solve, try these people:
-
Chief Enrollment Officer: Sarah Kleinhandler SKleinh@schools.nyc.gov
-
Deputy Chief Enrollment Officer: Gabrielle Ramos-Solomon GRamos20@schools.nyc.gov
-
Senior Director, 3k and Pre-k Admissions: Juliet Kaye JKaye2@schools.nyc.gov
-
Senior director, Kindergarten and Gifted & Talented Admissions: Daniel Hildreth DHildreth@schools.nyc.gov
-
Senior Director, Middle School Admissions: Jai Griem
-
Senior Director, High School Admissions: Kristen O'Neil KOneil8@schools.nyc.gov
You can also email the DOE enrollment office directly. They answer emails within a day or two:
-
Elementary school: ESEnrollment@schools.nyc.gov
-
Middle school: MSEnrollment@schools.nyc.gov
-
High school: HSEnrollment@schools.nyc.gOV
