Town Square is hosting its 10 annual Schoolfest on Saturday, October 21st at John Ericsson Middle School 126.
The one-of-a-kind school fair offers north Brooklyn families a chance to get to know their local public schools, private schools and enrichment providers.
The networking and informational environment allows the schools to share important information for local families.
For parents, the event can help them navigate the often-confusing process so they can make the best decisions for their children.
