CONGRATULATIONS to the fierce MS 50 debate team who brought home the first place trophy in the first NYC Reads @nycdebateleague tournament of the year! We are so proud of the work they’ve put in for the last few months preparing and how they all used their voices today to be leaders for peace and justice in the world. Special thanks to all the alumni and parents who came out to help judge as well! We couldn’t do this without the incredible community we have here at 50! Go Warriors! @nycschools @communityschooldistrict14 #debate

At MS 50 and all New York City Public Schools, ensuring all students have access to a free, healthy, and nutritious breakfast and lunch is always a top priority and this will not change. We know that SNAP disruptions will affect many in our school community and we want to provide resources to help our families navigate this moment. Access an updating list of food pantries and additional resources at ms50.org/foodsupport On that page you can also donate to the PTA’s Food Support Fund. All funds will directly support MS 50 families. We are family MS 50!

Friday we took our 8th Graders on a team building trip to WildPlay Jones Beach for a high ropes and zip lining course! We are so proud of our students who faces their fears and challenged themselves to reach higher than they thought possible! Check our website soon for more photos of a great day.

The MS 50 Flag Football team has played a great season this fall! We are so proud of our student athletes who work hard all day in the classroom and on the field after. Catch them play before the end of the season!

50 Fest last week was a fantastic celebration of the MS 50 family! We shut down the block with performances and speakers to honor our 10 year anniversary of becoming a community school partnered with @elpuentepresente. A huge shoutout to our student performers from Jazz Band, Cheer, and our Dance team for the incredible performances they put together in less than a month! We were also so proud to recognize our alumni who were members of our national championship winning policy debate team last spring. Thank you to @rep_velazquez’s office for sharing the story of our students’ accomplishments on the floor of congress! Thank you to all the other wonderful speakers and representatives who came out including members of @elpuentepresente, @_juliasalazar’s office, @bkbpreynoso’s office, and more! What a joy it was to see so many current and former students and families come together to share what this community means to them. We are Family! #prideofthesouthside
