With only two weeks back in school to prepare, the amazing new PS22 Chorus of 2026 pulled off the extraordinary — joining forces with GRAMMY-winner and all-round exceptional human, Jon Batiste, for a show-stopping performance of his song “I Need You” at the #Goalkeepers2030 event last week! Despite the time crunch, the kids brought their signature energy, heart, and harmony to the stage for a performance that pulled out all the stops— including additional backing by a high school marching band and 11-year-old tap dancer Chloe. 💃🥁 But this moment wasn’t just about music — the chorus used their voices to help raise awareness and funds for urgent humanitarian causes sponsored by The Gates Foundation proving that young people can move the world!! #jonbatiste #billgates #GatesFoundation #ps22chorus #ps22 #ineedyou

I am currently in Utah attending the Utah Symposium. Yesterday was an opportunity to meet with 15 different programs to update my knowledge of each one. For the rest of the week I will have the opportunity to visit eight programs on their campuses. Both being with the therapists and program administrators yesterday and seeing these places in action for the rest of the week provide ongoing opportunities to know each one well, to confirm that I’m sending the most appropriate students to each one, and that they’re well served while they’re there.
