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.

    Chapter 7 Recreation, Open Space and Cultural Resources Planning Base Studies Village of Rye Brook, New York CHAPTER 7 RECREATION, OPEN SPACE AND CULTURAL RESOURCES 7.1 Overview The Village of Rye Brook has close to 3,000 acres of open space, which may be found in public parks and schools, along parkways and natural waterways, at privately-owned country clubs, and within housing developments and corporate parks. These areas are variably designated for both active and passive recreation, open or limited access, or for natural resource conservation. Rye Brook’s parks and open spaces serve as places of recreation and respite, as community gathering places, centers of learning, and as reflections of its culture and history. Municipal parks and open space account for approximately 34.7% of total land area in the Village of Rye Brook, approximately 0.25 acres per resident. Residents also benefit from nearby regional parks and facilities owned and operated by neighboring municipalities. The Village is located in a region that is rich in recreational re- sources. Its neighbors within Westchester include the City of Rye, the Village of Port Chester, the Town of North Castle and the Town of Harrison, which provide a variety of both public and private rec- reational opportunities. The Village’s location on the Connecticut state border affords Rye Brook residents access to a significant num- ber of out-of-state parks, historic sites and nature preserves. A. Recreational Resources Public parks provide a large portion of the outdoor recreational re- sources within the Village of Rye Brook; however, other opportuni- ties for outdoor recreation include: Country clubs Walking paths Trailway routes Community centers Schools B.

  • 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.

In its first year, the event attracted 75 students. Since 2014, it has grown in scope and tripled in size. On Dec. 10, Valhalla Middle/High School students took part in their sixth annual Hour of Code. The event provided students with an introduction to coding and created an awareness for the subject. Children of all Twelve Angry Jurors..... 3 ages and experience levels joined as participants and could learn at their own pace. “My ultimate goal is to promote the computer science program,” said Dr. Fox. “It shocks me every year that the number of students participating keeps going up. This tells me that there is a high interest in coding. It’s a great way to expose them to many aspects of computer science.” This year, 235 VMHS students took part in the Hour of Code — a new record. Nearly 170 had pre-registered, while another 65 were walk-ins. Children filled the library and computer labs — and Engaging Colonial Music Comes to Life............ 4 continued on page 2 Volleyball Team Crowned State Champion After falling in the first set to Portville High School, the Valhalla girls varsity volleyball team took a commanding lead of the competitive game by winning the second and third sets.
