In Pre-Kindergarten, children learn how to share, take turns and work in groups. They also develop skills that are the foundation for reading, writing and mathematics. All UPK programs are free of charge. Programs can be half-day or full-day. Students with Special Needs If your child currently has an Individualized Educational Program (IEP) for related services and/or Special Education Itinerant Teacher (SEIT) services, and you want your child to apply for a New York City public school Pre-Kindergarten program with services for the 2011-2012 school year, you may apply to the programs in this Directory, online, or in person at your local Enrollment Office. If your child has an IEP that specifies Special Class or Special Class in an Integrated Setting and you want your child to receive this service in a NYC Pre- Kindergarten program during the 2011-2012 school year, please contact the Committee on Preschool Special Education (CPSE) administrator at the Committee on Special Education (CSE) in your borough of residence. For more information, please visit the following website: www.nyc.gov/schools/Academics/SpecialEducation/Committees. Page 3 PUBLIC SCHOOL UPK PROGRAMS About Public School Universal Pre‐Kindergarten (UPK) Programs Each public school UPK program listed in this directory includes the school's DBN (School Code), the school name, address and phone number. In addition, each public school listed has information on the total number of applicants and seats from Round 1 of the 2011 Pre‐Kindergarten admissions process. This data is provided to help you better understand how families made their choices during Round 1 this year. The directory also provides the number of available seats for Round 2 in each public school program (AM, PM, Full‐Day) for the 2011‐2012 school year. How to Apply There are two ways to complete the Pre‐Kindergarten application; you can apply online or you can apply in person at an Enrollment Office. Do not submit an application by mail. The online and paper applications are the same and you should only submit one application. Apply Online The online application is available at www.nyc.gov/schools/PreK. If you complete the online application, an application receipt and results notification will be emailed to you. Online applications must be submitted by 11pm on Sunday, July 31. Late applications will not be processed. If you do not have a computer at home you may complete an application on a computer at one of the many New York City public library locations. Access to computers is available with a free library card. To sign up for a library card, you must provide proof of address. To find a library in your area, call 311.

Enrollment Offices are open from 8am to 3pm, Monday through Friday. The deadline to apply in person is Friday, July 29 at 3pm. Late applications will not be processed. For a list of Enrollment Offices, please see page 6. Application Checklist Before you submit your Pre‐Kindergarten application, review the following checklist: Visit schools to determine travel time from your home; there is no transportation provided by the Department of Education for Pre‐Kindergarten students. Consider the length and times of programs; there are morning programs (AM), afternoon programs (PM) and full day programs (FD). Do not use abbreviations on the application. Include your apartment number on the application (if applicable). List only those schools you are interested in having your child attend; if your child is offered a placement, it will be to one of the schools that you list on the application. Twins/triplets: If you are submitting an application for twins or triplets and you want the twins or triplets to attend the same school, you should complete one application and list each child’s information in Section 2 on the application. Siblings: If you want your child to attend his or her older sibling’s school, you must list the older sibling’s school in Section 3 on the application. Keep a copy of the completed application for your records. Page 4 PUBLIC SCHOOL UPK PROGRAMS Eligibility Children born in 2007 who reside in New York City are eligible to participate in UPK programs that are offered by the New York City Department of Education. Admissions Priorities Siblings will be given first preference for admission to all Universal Pre-Kindergarten programs in public schools. This means that applicants who have an older sibling currently enrolled at the school to which they are applying will receive priority for admission. A sibling is a brother or sister (including half-brothers, half- sisters, stepbrothers, stepsisters, foster brothers, and foster sisters) who lives in the same household as the applicant. Preference will be given in cases where an applicant’s sibling is currently enrolled in a school and will be in a grade ranging from kindergarten through fifth grade next year. Applicants with siblings will be admitted according to the following order of priority: 1. Zoned applicants with a sibling who will be in K – 5th grade at the school in 2011-12; 2. Then to applicants with no zoned school (or whose zoned school has no Pre-Kindergarten program) living in district, with a sibling who will be in K – 5th grade at the school in 2011-12; 3. Then to applicants zoned to another school, living in district, with a sibling who will be in K – 5th grade at the school in 2011-12; 4. Then to applicants zoned to another school, living outside district but in borough, with a sibling who will be in K – 5th grade at the school in 2011-12; 5. Then to applicants zoned to another school, living outside district and borough but in New York City, with a sibling who will be in K – 5th grade at the school in 2011-12. After sibling preference, all other applicants will be admitted according to the following order of priority: 6. Zoned applicants; 7. Then to applicants with no zoned school (or whose zoned school has no Pre-Kindergarten program) living in district; 8. Then to applicants zoned to another school, living in district; 9. Then to applicants zoned to another school, living outside district but in borough; 10. Then to applicants zoned to another school, living outside district and borough but in New York City. If you apply in Round 2 and you received an offer in Round 1, your application will only be considered after new applicants and applicants from Round 1 in your priority group who did not receive an offer are considered. All Pre-Kindergarten applicants that received in offer in Round 1 must submit a Round 2 application to be considered for a new offer. Admissions Policies . There is no guarantee of a placement in a Pre-Kindergarten program. If there are more students applying than there are available

  • Media Nations 2019

    Media Nations 2019

    Media nations: UK 2019 Published 7 August 2019 Overview This is Ofcom’s second annual Media Nations report. It reviews key trends in the television and online video sectors as well as the radio and other audio sectors. Accompanying this narrative report is an interactive report which includes an extensive range of data. There are also separate reports for Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Media Nations report is a reference publication for industry, policy makers, academics and consumers. This year’s publication is particularly important as it provides evidence to inform discussions around the future of public service broadcasting, supporting the nationwide forum which Ofcom launched in July 2019: Small Screen: Big Debate. We publish this report to support our regulatory goal to research markets and to remain at the forefront of technological understanding. It addresses the requirement to undertake and make public our consumer research (as set out in Sections 14 and 15 of the Communications Act 2003). It also meets the requirements on Ofcom under Section 358 of the Communications Act 2003 to publish an annual factual and statistical report on the TV and radio sector. This year we have structured the findings into four chapters. • The total video chapter looks at trends across all types of video including traditional broadcast TV, video-on-demand services and online video. • In the second chapter, we take a deeper look at public service broadcasting and some wider aspects of broadcast TV. • The third chapter is about online video. This is where we examine in greater depth subscription video on demand and YouTube.

  • Annual Evaluation Report 2007-2008

    Annual Evaluation Report 2007-2008

    Improving the Lives of Children 0-5 First 5 Commission of San Diego County Annual Evaluation Report 2007-2008 October 2008 his report brought together the efforts of those touched by First 5 San Diego, such as its contractors, the families it serves and community stakeholders in a profoundly collaborative process. Contractors were T often required to expand their view of evaluation from program-specific to initiative-level. The willingness of Commission contractors to see themselves as part of a larger system working to improve services for young children and their families made this evaluation possible. We hope that they have also benefited from seeing themselves as part of a “learning community.” Families and stakeholders took time out of their busy schedules to answer questions of themselves and their families, as well as reflected on the impacts First 5 San Diego may have had in their lives and the community. These conversations took place in the form of focus groups, surveys, interviews, and case studies. Without these individuals, understanding the impact of the Commission’s work – both in numbers and in personal stories – would not have been possible. In particular, Harder+Company Community Research would like to thank the following people: The Commissioners of the First 5 Commission of San Diego County for their commitment to positively affect the lives of children ages 0-5 years in this county: Ron Roberts (Chair 2007), Greg Cox (Chair 2008), Dr. Wilma J. Wooten, Jean Shepard (2007), Nick Macchione (2008), Carol Skiljan, and Charleen Tressler.

The proposal consists of replacing three one-over-one, double-hung windows at the 18th floor of the visible secondary west elevation with three single-pane, tilt-and-turn metal windows; and removing two multi-pane, double-hung windows at the 18th floor of the visible rear elevation(south), and enlarging the masonry openings to accommodate two single-pane, tilt-and-turn metal windows, as shown in drawings LPC-0, LPC-1, LPC-2, LPC-3, and photo-board 1, dated September 31, 2002, prepared by George Sweeney Architects, and presented at the Public Hearing and Public Meeting. In reviewing this proposal, the Commission noted that the Upper East Side Historic District Designation Report describes 730 Park Avenue as an apartment building designed by Lafayette A. Goldstone in 1928-1929 in the neo-Renaissance/neo-Jacobean style; and that the building's style, scale, and materials contribute to the special architectural and historic character of the Upper East Side Historic District.

(Go to shop.wgbh. episode, “The org and type Peep DVD in the search box.) As the children watch, you may want to ask a Whatchamacallit” few questions that focus on the science concepts. For example, when Chirp and Peep are walking up the rain gutter, ask: What does that remind you of? (a slide) What do you think will happen next? Explore Set up the ramp activities in three distinct parts of the room. Children can rotate through the activities. (The hope is that most children will spend at least 10 minutes at an activity; it’s fi ne if some choose to spend more time.) For each activity, have a volunteer introduce the materials and then invite children to explore. Observe the children, noticing what captures their curiosity. Keep the explorations going by asking them to talk about what they are doing and by posing open-ended questions such as: What did you notice when you…? How could you make it move faster? More slowly? Materials Activity 1: Roll, Slide, or Stay Put? • a ramp (a piece of Introduce the materials by selecting an object and asking: What cardboard, about do you think will happen when we put this on the ramp? Will it roll, 18” long, propped on a box or on slide, or stay put? (Use hand motions to show the difference blocks) for each between roll and slide.) Have a child test it out.
