Solar Eclipse Viewing

On Monday, April 8, 2024 a total solar eclipse will occur during which the moon will pass between the sun and the earth and block the sun's light for several minutes. While New York City is not in the path of totality, the five boroughs will experience a partial solar eclipse. Experts warn that it is not safe to look directly at the sun without specialized solar eclipse glasses.
For students who would like to view the eclipse from school they will have the opportunity on the athletic field at 3:15pm. Glasses will be available for free.
