         <description><![CDATA[<div>Before entering the program's rooms, NYJTL Staff must complete the daily health and safety assessment with participants individually.&nbsp;<br><br>If the participant states to NYJTL teachers they have two or more symptoms, it is recognizable. Please contact Program Director (Ms.Deja). The participant is told to wait on the side, off the group line, until the PD arrives to do further assessments with the student. The PD will then bring the student to the isolated school room (RM 119), Where the student will remain until their parent comes to pick up. &nbsp;<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <title>Vaccine Command Center Update: Get your booster and mask up, New York!</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear Team,</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Hope all is well!!</div><div>&nbsp;Please see below with updates from NYC regarding the covid-19 vaccine and booster.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Further, listed below are the five key points the administration plans to implement to combat COVID-19 this winter:</div><ul><li>Expand the nationwide booster campaign by providing more outreach and ensuring that more appointments are available at additional locations for people to get the extra vaccine dose.</li><li>Launch new family vaccination clinics to make it easier for whole families to get vaccinated at one time.</li><li>Provide better access to free at-home tests, which will be covered by private insurance plans and available for people without insurance at more community health centers and other sites. &nbsp;</li><li>Provide more rapid response teams to assist medical staff in places with rising COVID-19 cases and overburdened and understaffed hospitals.</li><li>Accelerate global efforts to help vaccinate people in other countries and strengthening international travel rules for people arriving in the U.S. Notably, travelers arriving in the U.S. will need to provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test that was administered within one day of departure to the country.</li></ul><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Additionally, the Transportation Security Administration will extend through March 18 its requirement that travelers wear masks on airplanes, trains and buses and in airports and train stations.<br><br><strong>COVID-19 Omicron Variant</strong></div><div>Vaccines are a critical tool to keeping your loved ones safe. Although we are still learning more about the prevalence of the omicron variant in NYC, at least one person who traveled to the City has tested positive for the variant. Delta remains the dominant strain – about 98% of sequenced specimens.</div><div>Studies are underway and there will be more information in the coming days, but early evidence suggests that those who’ve had COVID-19 in the past may be more easily reinfected with omicron.</div><div>Everyone should wear masks in ALL public indoor settings. For up to date information on Omicron and COVID-19 please visit <a href="https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fcampaign.nychhc.org%2Fct.asp%3Fid%3DAA13A110E59827D6F4219F9053EA93044612E3B3C78C2A389DAE5159D1FF04D1056255A8DA4A7C3919DAC5505431C1F1%26ct%3D4aeUszYAAABCWmgzMUFZJlNZQLcQaQAADhmAAAOgMC7jzaAgAEEUNPU8k9J5R5pQo0ZA0aZGimvTqempg2aqbQqLewBcQXOn7T7ILDR4mJfaSMfi7kinChIIFuINIA%253d%253d&amp;data=04%7C01%7CGconnor%40dycd.nyc.gov%7Cbcb3f09af8f7446321ba08d9b658df4a%7C32f56fc75f814e22a95b15da66513bef%7C0%7C0%7C637741315077954522%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&amp;sdata=XUnUp6yQ3aEnXunnbjAbJQKv8VjgFQhrmc%2FCmqEEkmw%3D&amp;reserved=0">on.nyc.gov/coronavirus</a><br><br><strong>Feel like you need a boost?</strong></div><div>Getting vaccinated and getting your booster shot are the best ways to protect yourself and your loved ones from COVID. Over 1 million booster shots have now been administered in NNYC. Anyone 18+ can get a booster shot for all three approved vaccination types if they were fully vaccinated with Moderna or Pfizer by June 1st or Johnson &amp; Johnson over two months ago. You can also choose to get Moderna or Pfizer as your booster if you initially received the Johnson &amp; Johnson vaccine.</div><div>Don’t wait!

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear Team,</div><div><br></div><div>November is Native American Heritage Month and a time to celebrate rich and diverse cultures, traditions, and histories, and to acknowledge the important contributions of Native people. Heritage Month is also an opportunity to raise a general awareness about the challenges Native people have faced both historically and, in the present, and the ways in which tribal citizens have worked to conquer these challenges.<br><br>New York City is a diverse community and NYJTL is uniquely fortunate to not only serve this community but learn from it as well. We are grateful to our team members that drive our mission and are fortuitous that we get to work with a diverse team that challenges us to better understand the triumphs and struggles of different peoples.<br>Our awareness broadens our views of the world and aids us in serving the children of NYC. NYJTL celebrates the diversity of the children who participate in every program, serving youth from all five boroughs.</div><div><br></div><div>Thank you,</div><div>Udai</div><div><br></div><div><strong>Udai Tambar</strong></div><div><strong>NYJTL</strong> <strong>CEO &amp; President</strong></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear Team,</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>On Monday, New York Junior Tennis &amp; Learning joins the nation in celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. As we mark the life and legacy of this American hero, it is important to reflect on Dr. King’s leadership in fighting against injustice across the country. His dedication to the principle that men and women everywhere, regardless of color or creed, are equal members of society is an inspiration to us all.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Though decades have passed since Dr. King’s leadership of the Civil Rights Movement, these concerns are still prevalent today. At NYJTL, the work of our staff and volunteers address the structural causes that produce this inequity in our service to low-income communities of color citywide. With the evolving circumstances of the pandemic, issues of inequality have deepened. Our staff has been diligently working to mitigate these effects on the communities we serve.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Our NYJTL family is devoted to continuing Dr. King’s life’s work of daring to dream and serving others. Thank you for your day-to-day work that carries Dr. King’s legacy and spirit through service and preserving the content of our collective character.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>“Everyone can be great because everyone can serve.” - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Sincerely,</div><div>Udai</div><div><strong>Udai Tambar</strong></div><div><strong>CEO &amp; President<br>NYJTL</strong></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear NYJTL Team, &nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>Pride Month has been going strong all June as we commemorate the 1969 Stonewall Uprising and honor the impact that LGBTQIA+ individuals have had on history locally, nationally, and internationally. &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Sometimes an unseen force, I want to express my gratitude to the LGBTQIA+ community for the care and strength they provide to the organization. We are so excited to be hosting the Liberty Open in partnership with the Gay Lesbian Tennis Alliance (GLTA) at the Cary Leeds Center from July 2-4, 2022 and hope to continue to make strides in representing the LGBTQIA+ community in the work that we do across New York City. &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>At NYJTL, we celebrate love in all forms. During this time, we observe Pride through parades and other festivities, but also recognize the need to raise awareness and acceptance so others may always live life as their truest selves without fear. All people, including our staff, youth, and families we serve, are welcome here. &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>You can learn more about Pride Month and its history <a href="https://www.loc.gov/lgbt-pride-month/about/">here.</a> (https://www.loc.gov/lgbt-pride-month/about/) &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Sincerely,&nbsp;<br><br></div><div><strong>Udai Tambar</strong></div><div><strong>CEO &amp; President</strong></div>]]></description>

All requests must be made in writing. Copies of all correspondence will be kept in the employee’s personnel file.</div><div><strong>&nbsp;</strong></div><div><strong><mark>Resignation</mark></strong></div><div>Employees who resign should give the program director at least two weeks’ written notice.</div><div>&nbsp;<br><strong><mark>Children of Staff Members in the school Building</mark></strong></div><div>The program is sensitive to the needs of working parents with young children. Toward that end, provisions will be made to accommodate, to the extent possible, elementary school children only. These students must complete program registration forms and be placed in a classroom other than that of the parent, pending the availability of space. They must be able to attend the program five days per week.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Children of staff members must adhere to all rules and regulations of the program. Under no circumstances will the children be allowed to be in the parent’s classroom. They are not to leave the room to visit, complain, etc. Program staff should not “stop by” to check on their children or send a child to their parent to address a behavioral concern. These matters should be discussed during dismissal, as they are with every other family member. At no point should a s staff bring a child that is not part of the program to participate in program schedules, these students are visitors in the program. &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Any emergencies resulting in the need for your children under the age of 5 to be with you on a given day should never be an option.&nbsp; We ensure each child is safe and covered under the program insurance policy. Program Director: abuse of this will result in employment separation.&nbsp;</div><div><strong>&nbsp;</strong></div><div><strong><mark>Grievance Procedures:</mark></strong></div><div>The grievance resolution procedure pertains to work-related problems. If you have concerns regarding work assignments, treatment by your supervisor or co-employees, safety, evaluations, or similar matters, you may follow the steps listed below:</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Step 1: Contact your immediate supervisor within one week from when the grievance occurs, or the issue arises.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Step 2: If the problem is not resolved, you may proceed by discussing your issue with the next level of management within the department within one week from the date of the decision of your immediate supervisor. You should prepare a written statement outlining the facts surrounding your grievance to present at the time of the meeting.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Step 3: If you believe the situation has not been resolved, you should then make an appointment with be referred to the Chief Educational Officer and the Director of Program Operation, who will convene a grievance committee to determine the matter.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Step 4: Upon receiving the determination of the grievance committee under step 3, should you still feel that the problem has not been resolved, you may present an appeal in writing to the director of human resources within one week. The director of human resources will refer the matter to the executive director to whom human resources report, whose report will be final.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear Team,</div><div>&nbsp;<br>On Monday, New York Junior Tennis &amp; Learning joins the country in celebrating the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. This day provides a special opportunity to remember his teachings as we reflect on his heroic leadership in fighting injustice across the country.&nbsp;</div><div><br>Dr. King once said, “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, what are you doing for others?” At NYJTL, we address this question every day. Our devoted staff and volunteers help change the life trajectories of tens of thousands of children and families, largely of color, across NYC. Together, we build community and use tennis and learning as a vehicle for change. &nbsp;</div><div><br>As we celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, let us do so with a sense of purpose and service. Thank you for your dedication that continues to honor Dr. King’s spirit of equity and education.&nbsp;</div><div><br>Sincerely,&nbsp;</div><div>Udai</div><div><strong>Udai Tambar</strong></div><div><strong>President &amp; CEO</strong></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear Team,&nbsp;<br><br></div><div>Today is <a href="https://www.internationalwomensday.com/">International Women’s Day</a>, and NYJTL joins the rest of the world in honoring the contributions of women to our history and present-day society. At NYJTL, the impact of our female staff, board members, volunteers, and participants cannot be overstated. More than sixty percent of our team is women, and their vital role in the success of our organization is essential. <a href="https://www.nyjtl.org/shenay-perry-profile/">Read here</a> our spotlight on Shenay Perry, a former tennis pro and current coach who is an example of our outstanding female staff at NYJTL and the Cary Leeds Center.&nbsp;<br><br></div><div>Though considerable progress has been made in the fight for gender equity, there is still much work to be done. Celebrating a day like today is a privilege as many women still struggle to obtain their human rights and equal treatment, as we’ve seen with the brave protests led by <a href="https://time.com/heroes-of-the-year-2022-women-of-iran/">Iranian women</a> and other movements across the world. Especially in our own experiences working with families in such a global city like NYC, we honor the bravery of gender rights activists worldwide and allow it to empower our common fight for equality. &nbsp;<br><br></div><div>Today, and every day, we celebrate the women who carry out our mission and the young girls that we serve. Later today in our ACES Afterschool Program, women of various professions are visiting our middle school sites to discuss their career and education journeys with participants. In addition, on March 29 at 10am, we will be hosting the third installment of our Holding Court: Speaker Series with guest <a href="https://unitedwaynyc.org/united-way-of-new-york-city-announces-new-president-and-ceo/">Grace Bonilla</a>, President and CEO of United Way of New York City, and moderated by NYJTL Board Member Yvonne Buysman. Stay tuned for more details. &nbsp;<br><br></div><div>Sincerely,&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;</div><div>Udai&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><strong>Udai Tambar</strong></div><div><strong>President &amp; CEO</strong></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Dear NYJTL Team, &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>As we approach the commemoration of Juneteenth this Monday, an incredibly significant day in American history, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on its important meaning and acknowledge its relevance in our ongoing<strong> </strong>journey towards a more inclusive and just society.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, marks the emancipation of the last remaining enslaved Black Americans in the United States on June 19, 1865. It symbolizes the triumph of freedom over oppression and the tireless fight for equality and justice. This day not only serves as a reminder of our shared history but also as a call to action to continue the pursuit of true liberation for all. &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>At NYJTL, we are not only a community of coaches, educators, and mentors, but also advocates for equity, empowerment, and social change. Juneteenth provides us with an opportunity to reaffirm our commitment to our values and to acknowledge the ongoing struggle for racial justice. It is a day to honor the resilience and strength of the Black community, recognizing their immeasurable contributions to our society and their unwavering pursuit of justice.&nbsp;</div><div><br>Please visit <a href="https://nmaahc.si.edu/sites/default/files/files/nmaahc_kids_-_juneteenth_resource.pdf">JUNETEENTH (si.edu)</a> for resources on how to help youth in your programs understand and celebrate Juneteenth.</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Thank you again for your dedication to creating inclusive and informed spaces for the youth we serve and their families. As NYJTL observes Juneteenth on Monday, June 19, I wish you a meaningful holiday filled with reflection, joy, and a renewed commitment to building a better future together.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Sincerely,&nbsp;<br>Udai&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><strong>Udai Tambar</strong></div><div><strong>President &amp; CEO</strong></div><div>36-36 33<sup>rd</sup> Street, Suite 504</div><div>Long Island City, NY 11106</div><div>917.601.0153</div><div><a href="http://www.nyjtl.org/">nyjtl.org</a></div>]]></description>

Take time to get to know your students as individuals and show interest in their interests and experiences.</li><li>Use active listening: Active listening means giving students your full attention and showing that you are interested in what they have to say.

         <description><![CDATA[<div><strong><em>One of the most important things students can do to improve their communication, leadership, and teamwork skills is step out of their comfort zone. This activity can be challenging but essential for building strong relationships and achieving success. By taking risks and trying new things, students can develop the confidence and skills to work effectively with others. They can also learn to appreciate different perspectives and approaches, leading to more productive and positive interactions. Ultimately, by pushing themselves out of their comfort zone, students can establish and maintain positive relationships with one another, which can benefit them in school and their personal lives.</em></strong></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Each field trip will have a Program Site Director accompany during the trip and a Trip Leader designated by the Program Director.&nbsp; &nbsp;<br><br></div><div>The Program Director is the Trip Leader in charge of the field trip. &nbsp;<br>All other staff on the field trip must work appropriately and follow instructions given by the Program Director to support the designated Trip Leader.&nbsp; It is critical to establish basic safety procedures and guidelines with the students before they leave the school. The Program site leadership team will set policies for lining up, crossing streets, bathroom procedures, etc. The Trip Leader and other staff will let the children know what to do in the event of an emergency; for example, if they get lost, they should look for an adult they can trust, an employee of the place they are going, a police officer, etc. &nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div><strong>Head Counts:</strong>It is very important to do a regular headcount throughout the field trip. The first head count should take place before the group leaves the school. There should be a head count of students in each group and a total count. Head counts should continue to occur periodically, specifically when you: get on and off a bus, when you arrive and depart from your destination, any time the group makes a stop that requires the students to split (i.e., bathroom stops), etc.<br><br></div><div><strong>Ratios: </strong><br>&nbsp;It is essential and needed to maintain small ratios when on field trips. A 5:1 or 7:1 ratio is recommended when on a field trip.&nbsp; Program Directors must accompany the site on all trips. If PD is unavailable, the Program Manager must accompany the Assistant Site Director on the trip. Ensure staff and volunteers know who they are responsible for on the field trip. If the students are divided into smaller groups, make sure the staff or volunteer has a list of the student they are responsible for</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Love and Logic helps parents and teachers guide their kids to be accountable for the problems they create—and guide them in a way that increases the love and respect their kids feel for them.<br><br><strong><mark>Step 1: Provide a strong and sincere dose of empathy.</mark></strong></div><blockquote><em>“Oh no. This is a problem. I bet that’s really upsetting.”</em></blockquote><div><strong><br></strong><strong><mark>Step 2: Hand the problem back.</mark></strong></div><blockquote>After you have proven that you care, ask:<br><br><em>“What do you think you might do to solve this problem?”</em></blockquote><div><br></div><div><strong><mark>Step 3: Ask permission to share what “some kids” have tried.</mark></strong></div><blockquote>Avoid giving these suggestions until you have asked:<br><br><em>“Would you like to hear what some other kids have tried?”</em></blockquote><div><br></div><div><strong><mark>Step 4: Suggest two or three alternatives for solving the problem.</mark></strong></div><blockquote>As you suggest alternatives, remember to avoid creating resistance by saying:<br><br><em>“Some kids decide to __________________________________.”<br></em><br>As they consider each choice, you can ask:<br><br><em>“How would that work for you?”</em></blockquote><div><br><strong><mark>Step 5: Allow the child to solve or not to solve the problem.</mark></strong></div><blockquote>Resist the urge to tell the child which alternative to pick. End the session by showing your faith in the child and say:<br><br><em>“Good luck! Let me know how this turns out!”</em></blockquote><div><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Good morning all,<br>I just wanted to address an issue that has been brought to my attention. I have received several complaints from the DOE teachers regarding the state of the classrooms after they have been used. It seems that supplies are not being put away properly and the rooms are being left in quite a mess. I kindly ask that you take a moment with your group to tidy up after yourselves before moving on to your next activity. It's important to ensure that the classrooms are left in good condition for the next group of students who will be using them. If you find that you need any additional supplies, please feel free to take them from room 110 where there is a shelf stocked with everything you might need.&nbsp;<br>Thank you!</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Good morning all!&nbsp;<br>Today is a day full of excitement as we have a trip planned to Mount Prospect &amp; Brooklyn Public Library. We will be departing at 10 am and returning at 11:45, with three fun-filled activities planned for the day. To start the day, students can pick up their breakfast and enjoy it in the auditorium while we go over the rules, hand out T-shirts and kids' tags, and take a final bathroom break. We will then divide everyone into groups and remind everyone that safety comes first. We will do regular head-counts before leaving school, upon arrival, and before heading back. We will also take safety measures while walking to our destination. For more information regarding the field trip procedure, please refer to our handbook. During the event, we will be communicating through a walkie-talkie or staff group chat. The kids will be divided into three groups and on a rotation every 35 minutes, starting at 10:15 am and ending at 11:45 am. The first activity for the group will be in the big open field, the second activity will be in the playground, and the third activity will be in the library. The open field and library will have relay races, obstacle courses, and team-building activities. Each grade in the library will complete a scavenger hunt sheet with items and things found there.&nbsp;<br><br>After every 35 minutes, the group will rotate. We can message the rotation in the staff group chat. The activities will end at 11:45, and we will return to the school for lunch. Please note that any students who do not follow instructions will sit out for 10 minutes. If this behavior persists, please ensure Ms.Deja and Mr.James are informed. See you in a few!&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Good morning all!&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>Today is a day full of excitement as we have a trip planned to Mount Prospect &amp; Botanical Garden. We will be departing at 10 am and returning at 11:45. To start the day, students will pick up their breakfast and head to their classrooms. Around 9:30 they will head to the auditorium while we go over the rules, hand out T-shirts and kids' tags, and take a final bathroom break.&nbsp;</div><div>We will remain in the same groups assigned in the classroom.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>We will do regular head-counts before leaving school, upon arrival, and before heading back. We will also take safety measures while walking to our destination.&nbsp;</div><div>Such as having a staff in front and behind a group &amp; two staff on the side to assist with traffic when crossing.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>For more information regarding the field trip procedure, please refer to our handbook or Padlet.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>During the event, we will be communicating through a walkie-talkie.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>The kids will be divided into two groups. One group will walk through Botanical Garden (kin -2nd) about 30 mins and the other will go to Mount Prospect (3-5)&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>We will regroup at 11:45 and return to the school for lunch.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>Please note that any students who do not follow instructions will sit out for 10 minutes. If this behavior persists, please ensure Ms.Deja and Mr.James are informed.&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>Please wear your NYJTL Polo Shirt or Neck Lanyard.&nbsp;</div><div>See you in a few!&nbsp;</div>]]></description>
