  • New Student Orientation

Mandatory New Student Orientation

As part of our commitment to ensuring a smooth transition for new students, we are holding a Mandatory New Student Orientation on Wednesday, September 3rd, 2025.

During the orientation, students will receive the following:

Class schedule, Omni Card, Student ID, free uniform polo shirt , information about their lockers, school supplies and DOE accounts for students and parents. 

Each student has their own scheduled appointment for the orientation which should be received in the mail.

Our primary goals for this orientation are:

  • To reduce the stress and anxiety of students and parents about attending a new school.
  • To provide useful information that will improve student performance in the classroom and encourage active participation.
  • To create a positive first experience for our incoming class and their families.
  • We believe that this orientation will help students feel more comfortable and prepared as they start their journey with us. We look forward to meeting you and your child and making this transition as smooth as possible.

If you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact our office at: 718-601-0391 or email Mrs. Sime at gsime@schools.nyc.gov 

Uniform Policy

The regular uniform consists of a white WVHS polo shirt and black pants/skirts. The physical education uniform consists of a purple WVHS gym shirt, black gym shorts or sweatpants. All new students will receive one free polo shirt during new student orientation.

We are flexible and are allowing students to wear black jeans/pants. The following items are not acceptable uniform apparel:

  • acid-washed black/gray pants, jeans or sweatpants 
  • items with stripes, designs and/or logos bigger than the WVHS logo 
  • white t-shirts and/or undershirts

Although black jeans are allowed, most fade within a few washes to gray, so consider buying black pants from a uniform store as these tend to be more durable.

NYCPS Accounts

Every New York City public school student, including World View High School students, has an NYCPS account. It is created automatically when you enroll in school. Your NYCPS account stays the same the entire time you are in school, and with it you can access all NYCPS technology platforms. Platforms include:

  • TeachHub,
  • Google for Education,
  • Microsoft Office,
  • Adobe
  • PearDeck,
  • Zoom,
  • and more.

Getting Started

Your school must give you your username and password for your @nycstudents.net account. Once you have these, you can start signing into NYCPS applications. The best way to start using your NYCPS account is to sign in to TeachHub. From here, you can access all NYCPS applications with one click, and you only need to sign in once.

Resetting Your Password

There are three different ways you can reset your NYCPS password:

1. Reset it yourself through the Student Self-Service tool.

To use the Student Self-Service tool you must have created a PIN or set up security questions. If you have not done either, see options 2 and 3. Through this method, you can reset your own password once every 30 days.

2. Ask your parent or guardian to reset it through NYCSA.

Your parent or guardian can reset your password in NYCSA. If they don’t have a NYCSA account, they can create one for free.

3. Ask your school to reset your password for you.

If you are unable to reset your password, contact your school for help. They can find instructions on how to reset your password on the Reset Student Account Passwords page (NYCPS staff only) on the InfoHub.

PINs

By default, a PIN is not set for your account. You must create a PIN yourself. Your school does not have, or create, a PIN for you. There is no universal PIN for your school.

To create a PIN:

  1. Sign in to the Student Self-Service tool with your NYCPS username and password.
  2. Go to the left menu bar, and click on Pin Reset (this applies for creating a new PIN).
  3. Enter a PIN.
  4. Confirm your PIN by entering it again.
  5. Click on Save Changes.
  6. That’s it. An email will be sent to your NYCPS account to confirm you created a PIN.

Please note that PINs are optional for your NYCPS account. However, if you do not create a PIN, you will not be able to use the self-service tool to reset your password. If you feel like it would be hard to remember your PIN, or you are the parent of a young student, we recommend resetting your password through NYCSA.

Security Questions

Like a PIN, security questions are, by default, not set up. You must set them up.

To set up security questions:

  1. Sign in to the Student Self-Service tool with your NYCPS username and password.
  2. Go to the left menu bar, and click on Security Questions.
  3. Select and answer three questions of your choosing. Make sure you choose answers that you will remember.
  4. Enter your password.
  5. Click on Save Changes.
  6. That’s it. An email will be sent to your NYCPS account to confirm you set up security questions.
