Some Fridays it’s keys, saxophone, drums, or electric oboe. Other Fridays, like this one, it’s acoustic guitar.
Mr. Nelken generously shares his musical talents each week, turning Friday dismissal into a shared moment of joy and connection.
Music matters. And so do the many talents educators bring to Metro and to schools throughout the NHPS family. These gifts strengthen our school communities and help make them places where students and staff feel connected and belong.

Students and staff at Worthington Hooker School welcomed Yale Folklorico to the schoolwide Hispanic Heritage Celebration Friday.
During our September Professional Learning day, New Haven Public Schools Social Studies teachers had the opportunity to hear from several of our community partners, including the New Haven Museum, Lost in New Haven, the The Connecticut Democracy Center, Yale University, and others about the resources and experiences available to our students and teachers.
These partnerships help us connect social studies learning beyond the classroom through authentic, place-based experiences that allow students to engage with history, civics, and their own community in meaningful ways.
The Social Studies department will continue to leverage these relationships throughout the year to create more opportunities for New Haven students to investigate their community, engage with local resources, and experience social studies in action.
Thank you to all of our community partners for sharing their time, expertise, and opportunities with our teachers!
