Town Square’s 8th annual SCHOOLFEST is a one-of-a-kind school fair for North Brooklyn students and parents.  All schools, early childhood centers, and extracurricular providers are invited to a single venue to meet North Brooklyn families. This year Town Square is excited to announce that Schoolfest will be held at The North 5th Center in Williamsburg. The center is conveniently located just blocks away from the Bedford L-station and Williamsburg waterfront. 

With the help of CM Stephen Levin, CM Antonio Reynoso, and District 14 Superintendent Alicja Winnicki, this year’s Schoolfest will host almost 70 public schools, private schools, charter schools, early childhood centers and extracurricular activity providers to provide parents and educators with an one-stop informational resource.

Why you should attend Schoolfest 2015:

*Schoolfest offers a supportive networking and informational experience for both exhibitors and parents.

*Schoolfest allows our neighborhood schools to share new information and projects with each other so that our entire district may benefit.

*Most importantly, Schoolfest understands that parents can often be overwhelmed by school choices and admission processes. Schoolfest helps parents navigate through the confusion so that you can make the best choice for your child’s educational needs.
