Through consultation with families, community partners and Niagara Children’s Centre School Authority personnel we provide a quality student profile that focuses on each individual student. Programs offered at the Niagara Children’s Centre School Authority are designed on the needs of the school students, meaning programs vary year to year as it is dependent upon the students profile referred to the school. Therefore, each of the school’s six classrooms are comprised of students who present with the similar needs and cognitive ability. The services provided to each student are facilitated in order to create a successful transition of each student into their local community school. Each classroom consists of one special education teacher, two educational assistants, one occupational therapist, one speech language pathologist and a communication disorders assistant. The focus of each classroom team is to provide individualized academic programming and therapy to support each student in the acquisition of academic readiness skills. Each classroom team provides ongoing assessment(s) of the student’s learning strengths and needs.

Administrative Structure Niagara Children's Centre School Authority is a publicly funded organization, the School is funded by the Ministry of Education in Ontario. Our main purpose is to provide academic programs and services to enable children and youth with physical and/or communicative challenges to maximize their school readiness so they can attend a local community school.

You will responsible for reading and signing off various polices when required to do so. Below is a brief outline of some of the important policies for you to review: Code of Conduct A school should be a place that promotes responsibility, respect, civility, and academic excellence in a safe learning and teaching environment. A positive school climate exists when all members of the school community feel safe, included, and accepted, and actively promote positive behaviours and interactions. Building and sustaining a positive school climate is a complex challenge requiring evidence-informed solutions. A whole-school approach, which involves all members of the school community, is also important in supporting efforts to ensure that schools are safe, inclusive, and accepting. All students, parents, teachers and other school staff have the right to be safe, and to feel safe, in their school community. With this right comes the responsibility to contribute to a positive school climate. The promotion of strategies and initiatives such as Student Success and character development, along with the employment of prevention and intervention strategies to address inappropriate behaviour, fosters a positive school climate that supports student achievement and the well-being of all students (Reference PPM 128 and Niagara Children’s Centre School’s Policy/Procedure Book). Code of Conduct – Dress Code (under review) It is an expectation of the Niagara Children’s Centre School that all staff members dress appropriately when coming to work. School employees are able to dress casually. Examples of what appropriate dress wear is; walking shorts, Capri pants, dress pants, blouse, t-shirt that doesn’t have any racial profanity or offensive logos on it, solid colour leggings (with a shirt that covers the buttocks), tank top that covers shoulders (front and no shoulder blades showing). Jeans (blue, black, including dresses/Capri’s etc…) should only be worn on Fridays. Please be aware of low cut shirts/blouses etc… We are a professional entity and should be seen as being professionally at all times. Footwear guidelines are; shoes/scandals/boots must cover your toes and at least must have a back strap. As we work with children stiletto shoes are probably not a good idea to wear to work. Code of Conduct – General Expectations Below is a list of expectations we follow in the school - No food or drink in the classroom (water in a sealed container is acceptable) - Student and staff safety is paramount, never leave a child/children unattended - Teamwork is an essential piece of the puzzle – gossip, excluding others, belonging to a clique, and exhibiting a negative demeanour destroys teamwork - If conflict/issue arises between staff members, one should address the conflict/issue with the other staff member prior to speaking with the CEO/Principal - Capital punishment doesn’t exist at our school (we never restraint or physically force a child to comply) - Cell phones are only used on breaks. We do not use cell phones at anytime in the school hallway. 5 Parking All school staff are provided with a parking pass that is required to be displayed on your windshield. You can pick up your parking pass from the Administrative Assistant in the school office. All school staff are expected to park in the back parking lot (located beside Shaver Hospital). To enter the Centre/School you are encouraged to use the front entrance. You are able to access the locked sliding door entrance during the hours of 8:45 to 3:45 as the Administrative Assistant will be able to unlock the door for you. Confidentiality Niagara Children’s Centre School Authority will abide by all current legislation including the Education Act, The Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (MFIPPA) as well as the Personal Health Information Protection Act . Essentially, all three Acts indicate the same thing; “unless explicit consent has been given to disclose personal information, personal information isn’t disclosed.” All new employees are required to sign a confidentiality agreement when they begin working at Niagara Children’s Centre School Authority. Conflict of Interest It is the policy of Niagara Children’s Centre School Authority that each staff member is responsible for identifying and reporting any possible or actual conflict of interest to the CEO/Principal for evaluation regardless of whether or not the employee derives benefit. A conflict of interest exists if a school staff member engages in an activity which conflicts or appears to conflict with vision and values of the Niagara Children’s Centre School Authority.

  • State Education Department: Universal Pre-Kindergarten Program
    New York State Office of the State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli Division of State Government Accountability Universal Pre-Kindergarten Program: Monitoring of Health and Safety Requirements State Education Department Report 2016-S-10 December 2016 2016-S-10 Executive Summary Purpose To determine whether the State Education Department’s (Department) monitoring of the Universal Pre-Kindergarten providers’ compliance with applicable health and safety regulations is sufficient. Our audit scope included the period January 1, 2013 through August 4, 2016. Background The Universal Pre-Kindergarten (UPK) program was established through Chapter 436 of the Laws of 1997 to provide all four-year-olds in the State with the opportunity for an early childhood education. UPK provides four-year-old children access, at no charge, to comprehensive early childhood education experiences that promote their social-emotional, creative expressive/ aesthetic, physical, cognitive, linguistic, and cultural development. The early childhood agencies (eligible agencies) collaborating with school districts comprise a wide range of early child care and education providers, including: day care centers, nursery schools, Head Start programs, group family or family day care providers, preschool special education providers, Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES), and private schools. Department regulations require buildings and classrooms used for UPK to be safe and to comply with applicable fire safety, health, and building codes, and for equipment and furnishings to be safe and suitable for children and maintained in a state of good repair and sanitation. For the 2014-15 school year, there were 1,338 UPK providers operating outside of New York City that reported serving 43,623 children.

  • Downtown Neighborhood City of Niagara Falls: Phase I
    Intensive Level Survey Historic Resources – Downtown Neighborhood City of Niagara Falls: Phase I 3.0 Historical Overview This section provides a narrative history of the City of Niagara Falls with specific emphasis on the Downtown neighborhood. The overview addresses significant trends and themes associated with the city’s historic context. The Downtown neighborhood’s period of significance is identified and examined in this chapter. Martin Wachadlo, architectural historian, conducted the background historic research. 3.1 Niagara County: Physiology and Geology Figure 3-1. Niagara Falls, Niagara Falls, New York Niagara County borders the southern shore of Lake Ontario in the extreme northwestern corner of New York State, and occupies part of the Huron and Ontario Plains. The Ontario Plain comprises part of Lake Ontario to the foot of the Niagara Escarpment1, and the Huron plain extends from the crest of the escarpment southward beyond the county line. The Niagara Escarpment begins in Watertown, New York, USA and extends westerly along the Manitoulin Island in the Province of Ontario, Canada. The escarpment continues through Wisconsin and Illinois. With geological material measuring 64-ft thick, the stratigraphy at Niagara Falls provides a glimpse into the overall rock types comprising the Niagara Escarpment (Figure 3-1). The top layer is Lockport Dolomite, a hard rock referred to as the "Lower Silurian Group." Below the top layer is Rochester Shale, which is much softer and wears away easily with the effects of erosion. Under the shale are harder strata of limestone and dolostone known as the "Clinton Group." Below the harder strata is Grimsby sandstone.

The Niagara Frontier is one of the most historically significant areas in the United States. Few regions can claim as much impact on our early development as a nation: The Iroquois Confederacy; military fortresses and battlegrounds; the development of hydro-electric power; gateway for the mass movement of settlers and goods across the Great Lakes and Mid-West heartland of America; home to immigrants and refugees from all lands; and, the awesome natural wonder of Niagara Falls, are just a few of the unique heritage-treasures that should be known and appreciated by people of all ages. The Greater Niagara Frontier Council, Boy Scouts of America, established and maintains the “Niagara Frontier Trail” as an opportunity for families of Scouts, and non-Scouts alike, to discover the rich heritage of the Niagara Frontier. Through this program, the Council also has an incomparable opportunity to further its work in providing educational support to young people and fostering family unity.
