Director of the Month – Alessandra Long

Hi, my name is Alessandra Long, and I am the Education Director at our 164th location in Jamaica, Queens. I have worked in Early Childhood for over 30 years. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the staff in my building and getting to know all the parents and children who attend our school every day. It has been a valuable learning experience for me, both personally and professionally. I genuinely enjoy getting to know the families in my program and watching their little ones grow over the years they are with me. It’s a fantastic experience to witness this transformation! I am proud to say that in September, we will have an entire class composed of siblings of our current students. I believe it is an excellent testament to our program that families continue to come back. I look forward to many more happy years here, as children are my passion!
