Community Learning Center Hosts Graduation

The Community Learning Center hosted its first in-person event of the year this June to celebrate all the students have achieved.

The Community Learning Center (CLC) is a free, after school reading program for first and second graders in New York City public schools that was started in 2007 by Lower Division Director Donna Logue and is now co-directed by Educational Evaluation Associate for Admissions Kate Adlin and Reading Specialist Kristi Evans. For the 2021-22 school year, seven Gaynor teachers provided support to approximately 30 first- and second-grade students from PS 84 and PS 166.

Ms. Adlin said, “These children have been working virtually all year with CLC, and this is the first time the teachers and students are meeting in person.”

The graduation ceremony was held in the Early Childhood Garden, and the smiles on the students’ faces showed just how proud they were of their progress.
