Principal’s Message

Principal Mr. Michael Pontebbi

Dear PS/MS 20 Tigers Community,

I would like to wish you all a very happy new year! I am hopeful that our collaboration will lead to a fruitful and educational 2025! We officially have turned the calendar year and have hit an important time in our 2024-2025 school year.

This month we will be offering parent workshops to support and engage our families so that they can continue to be our vital partners in providing a great education for all of our students. We will be celebrating our students of the month for December and those students who have shown excellence in the form of working with others and demonstrating strong performance in their classwork.

Stakeholders will also be planning for our Open Door Days to be held in February.

I want to encourage all community members that as we enter the colder months, it is important to communicate with us at PS/MS 20 if there is a need for families that we can assist with. Additionally, a reminder that we allow students into the building at 7:40AM for hot breakfast every day.

Lastly, I want to share that our thoughts are with our families who were affected by the water main break in our community. Anything that PS/MS 20 can do to help- we will!!

Stay Bronx Strong!

Dr. Pontebbi
