Specifically, College Board is honoring schools who reached 50% or higher female representation in either of the two AP computer science courses in 2018, or whose percentage of the female examinees met or exceeded that of the school's female population in 2018. Out of more than 18,000 secondary schools worldwide that offer AP courses, only 685 have achieved this important result.

  • Gannett Newspapers 1998
    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.

Y. 10562 (914) 941-3554 FAX (914) 941-5940 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Christina Papes 914-941-3554 Ossining Documentary & Discussion Series, presents Brothers of the Black List Thurs. Feb. 12th As always, this event is at the Ossining Library’s Magnificent Budarz Theatre and is FREE! The Program Starts at 6:30; seating begins at 6:15. 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. An emotional story of social justice, this unsettling documentary serves as a cautionary tale of equal rights gone wrong and is relevant today more than ever. Following the Screening, join us for Conversation! Joining us will be the Director, one of the Film’s Subjects, and OHS teacher, Ms. McRae.
