  • Regional School-Aged Children BMI Profiles 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 School Years
    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.

  • 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.
