Parent Association

My son has joined the school in Pre-K this year. I'm born and brought up in India but have stayed in multiple countries including Thailand, Germany and the US. For the last 5 years, I've been living in Jackson heights and looking forward to contributing to the community in an effective manner. I have been supporting other child related organizations in the city such as St. Jude Children's Research Hospital for curing cancer in children and Chess in the Schools which fosters the intellectual and social development of low-income youth through chess education. I work for an investment bank and we connect with multiple organizations to help the community with various socio-economic issues in a constructive manner. Looking forward to sharing my experiences to help make this year a success for this association. Everyone is welcome to reach out to me for any concerns or for organizing any activity for the community. 

My name is Kunjan Shah and I have a daughter in the first grade. I was born in India but have lived in Queens since I was five years old. I'm a proud product of public education in New York City and New State as I went to SUNY Geneseo. I work in Finance within Compliance. When I'm not working I'm spending time with my family and friends, cooking, or planning our next vacation.  If there is anything I can do to help P.S. 398 succeed, please reach out. We're all in this together.

  My name is Lenny Olsson and I have a daughter in the first grade dual language class. I am a native New Yorker born and have lived in Queens since I was two years old. I'm a proud graduate of the CUNY system having attended LaGuardia Community College and Hunter College. I work in Human Resources at another CUNY college in Queens. When I'm not working I'm spending time with my family, trying to explain math to a six year old and helping to run JH SCRAPS, the community compost center located one block away from school. With your help, we can make this the best school for all our kids.
