    Education Secretary Praises Foundation In area visit, Riley calls teacher program a model for success By Lanning Taliaferro, Staff Writer, Gannett Newspapers Thursday, May 14, 1998 Former US Secretary of Education, Richard Riley congratulates first year TSTT college student, Mario Saurez. U.S. Education Secretary Richard Riley praised a Westchester County-based education foundation last night, calling for more initiatives like it across the country to link secondary schools and colleges. Riley said the foundation and its biggest program, Today's Students, Tomorrow's Teachers, would be models for a collaborative project, High Hopes for College, that he and President Clinton have asked Congress to fund. "The key is partnership," he said. "Things that work well in this country generally are partnerships." Riley was the keynote speaker at the Learning Foundation of Putnam-Northern Westchester's annual leadership awards program at the Armonk headquarters of the investment company, MBIA Inc. The gala honored 10 colleges involved in Today's Students, Tomorrow's Teachers. The program provides minority high school students who are interested in becoming teachers with academic support, mentors, internships and help with college admissions. Through participating colleges, the program also offers 50 percent scholarships to the students in return for a pledge to teach locally for at least a year. "Quality minority teachers - that's a national need," he said. "We're going to need two million teachers over the next 10 years. They're going to have to be quality teachers who can teach in a diverse classroom using high technology ... These people were very perceptive to pick this up." Honored last night were Fordham University in the Bronx; the College of New Rochelle; Gordon College in Wenham, Mass.; Iona College in New Rochelle; Manhattanville College in Purchase; Marist College in Poughkeepsie; Marymount College in Tarrytown; Mercy College in Dobbs Ferry; Pace University in New York City and Pleasantville; and Texas College in Tyler, Texas.

    Westchester County Department of Health Community Health Assessment Data Update 2015.08 Regional School-Aged Children BMI Profiles 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 School Years In this issue: • Number and Percent of School Aged Children who are overweight, obese, and overweight/obese by grade Project Directors: Jiali Li, Ph.D. Director of Research & Evaluation Planning & Evaluation Renee Recchia, MPH, Acting Deputy Commissioner of Administration Project Staff: Megan Cea, MPH, Medical Data Analyst Stan Cho, MPH, Medical Data Analyst Milagros Venuti, MPA, Assistant Statistician Graphic Design: Megan Cea, MPH Robert P. Astorino, Westchester County Executive Sherlita Amler, MD, Commissioner of Health Foreword The Westchester County Department of Health (WCDH) plays a leading role in promoting health, preventing disease, and prolonging meaningful life for Westchester County residents. WCDH monitors and controls the spread of communicable diseases, monitors and regulates air and water quality, enforces the state and local sanitary code, promotes local public health activities, and assures the availability of community health services. To comply with New York State Public Health Law, WCDH completed a Community Health Assessment (CHA) 2013-2017 in 2013 to describe the health status of Westchester County residents, identify existing gaps and health care barriers, assess the availability and accessibility of health care services, and specify public health priorities in the County. This document is intended to supplement the 2013-2017 CHA with updated regional school BMI information. In order to monitor overweight and obesity status and support the statewide efforts to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic, the New York State Student Weight Status Category Reporting System (SWSCR) was established to collect weight status category data (underweight, healthy weight, overweight or obese, based on BMI-for-age percentile) on children and adolescents attending public school in New York State, outside New York City.

ODDS is honored to welcome the Racial Justice Program of the American Civil Liberties Union as this month's screening sponsor. 20+ years ago, a woman in upstate New York reports an attempted rape by a young black man who cut his hand during the altercation. While looking for suspects, police contact officials at nearby SUNY Oneonta. A school administrator hands over names and residences of 125 black male students. Those students are subsequently tracked down and interrogated under a presumption of guilty until proven innocent. In Brothers of the Black List<http://www.brothersoftheblacklist.com/about.html>, director Sean Gallagher tracks this story of racism that became the longest litigated civil rights case in American history.

  • Solutions Not Suspension S
    SOLUTIONS NOT SUSPENSION S A Call to Action for a Better Approach to School Discipline in Westchester Schools A report from Student Advocacy ~ November 2013 0 A Call to Action for a Better Approach to School Discipline in Westchester Schools: Solutions Not Suspensions By Student Advocacy1, November 2013 Executive Summary Student Advocacy, with the strong support of the Westchester community, calls upon our public schools to adopt disciplinary policies and practices that focus on solutions and severely restrict the use of out-of-school suspensions. Specifically, the most effective school discipline will achieve two goals. It will create order and engage all students in school and in learning. Effective school discipline must: 1. Lead to Solutions - helping troubled students to resolve underlying problems so that educational continuity can be maintained. 2. Promote Engagement of All Students – recognizing that student engagement is key to prevention and effective intervention. 3. Ensure that Disciplinary Interventions Teach Students – better behavior, responsibility and compassion for others. 4. Utilize a Range of Disciplinary Interventions that are appropriate to the student’s age, disability, the circumstances of the incident AND that limit use of out-of-school suspensions to incidents that pose an immediate safety threat. 5. Promote Communication and Partnership with Parents School discipline is necessary to and a vital part of creating an atmosphere in which all teachers can teach and all students can learn. However, there are many, better alternatives. Suspension fails students, schools and the Westchester community: 5,000 to 9,000 students are suspended each year; at least 500 of these suspended students are only in elementary school.

    A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the nationalQuick stage, the Facts Manhattanville and College Athletic Contents Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. More than 325 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2011-12 school year showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. With women’s golf beginning play as a varsity sport in 2012-13, the program now sponsors 20 competitive intercollegiate teams – including eight teams that have been established or re-established since 2007 alone. And teams at Manhattanville do not just compete, they win. Three teams earned conference regular-season or tournament championships in 2011-12 and two Valiant squads (men’s soccer and men’s golf) made an appearance in the NCAA Tournament. Fifteen of 21 Valiant squads earned berths in their respective conference championships last year, including the third straight title and seventh in 11 seasons for men’s golf. In addition, the men’s hockey, men’s golf and women’s hockey teams all received national rankings over the course of the year. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2011-12 as well, led by All-America selections Eros Olazabal (men’s soccer) and Dan Fiorito (baseball). Manhattanville also boasted three Freedom Conference Players of the Year and two Freedom Rookies of the Year to go with 47 combined All-Conference honorees. In recent years, at least 35 former Valiants have gone on to play their sport professionally either domestically or overseas as well.
