  • Student Handbook
    DEPOSIT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL STUDENT / PARENT HANDBOOK Dear Parents/Guardians, Each year our children have to meet many new challenges in the ever-changing world. They need the best possible education to compete in an advanced technological environment. Now more than ever there is a need for our children to become proficient in reading, writing, and mathematics. The new state curriculum requirements put a much greater emphasis on thinking and reasoning skills. Children need to know how to work cooperatively in groups to solve problems and learn new ideas. The State and the District have set high standards for our students. We are confident that our students will reach beyond the goals which have been set for them. Many important items taken from the Deposit Central School Code of Conduct will be found in this handbook. Due to the size of the Code of Conduct we have not included the entire document as part of this handbook. However, if you would like to have a copy of the Code of Conduct please contact the elementary school office on school days during business hours. This handbook contains a great deal of information, which helps to provide an organized, efficient and effective environment for children to learn. Please review this handbook carefully with your child. It is important that everyone understands its contents. Parents, teachers and administrators must work together to educate our children. Feel free to contact your child’s teacher or me if you have any questions. I hope your child has a very stimulating, challenging and enjoyable year in our elementary school.

Superintendent’s Message Strategic Planning Meeting Winter’s icy grip seemed to arrive early this year; however, the chill in the air has done nothing to cool the enthusiasm, growth, and excitement within hearts and minds of our students and staff at Otselic Valley. One of my goals was to increase the level of connectivity and inclusivity among stakeholder groups within our school community, so we have started a number of initiatives in response. Strategic Planning In the late fall we completed the district’s Strategic Planning by consensus process. The Strategic Planning Committee is comprised of students, instructional and non-instructional staff, parents and community members, and administrators who worked together over four days spread out over November. This was Phase One; Phase Two will be the district’s roll out of the Strategic Plan which will include, but is not limited to, presenting the plan to the Board and community, faculty and staff, and students. Additionally, pending Board approval, we will together share the Strategic Plan with the greater Otselic Valley and implement the district’s new mission, vision, core beliefs, and performance measures.

  • A Brief History of Wine in South Africa Stefan K
    European Review - Fall 2014 (in press) A brief history of wine in South Africa Stefan K. Estreicher Texas Tech University, Lubbock, TX 79409-1051, USA Vitis vinifera was first planted in South Africa by the Dutchman Jan van Riebeeck in 1655. The first wine farms, in which the French Huguenots participated – were land grants given by another Dutchman, Simon Van der Stel. He also established (for himself) the Constantia estate. The Constantia wine later became one of the most celebrated wines in the world. The decline of the South African wine industry in the late 1800’s was caused by the combination of natural disasters (mildew, phylloxera) and the consequences of wars and political events in Europe. Despite the reorganization imposed by the KWV cooperative, recovery was slow because of the embargo against the Apartheid regime. Since the 1990s, a large number of new wineries – often, small family operations – have been created. South African wines are now available in many markets. Some of these wines can compete with the best in the world. Stefan K. Estreicher received his PhD in Physics from the University of Zürich. He is currently Paul Whitfield Horn Professor in the Physics Department at Texas Tech University. His biography can be found at http://jupiter.phys.ttu.edu/stefanke. One of his hobbies is the history of wine. He published ‘A Brief History of Wine in Spain’ (European Review 21 (2), 209-239, 2013) and ‘Wine, from Neolithic Times to the 21st Century’ (Algora, New York, 2006). The earliest evidence of wine on the African continent comes from Abydos in Southern Egypt.

    Rotary Club of Red Hook, New York Weekly Bulletin SERVICE ABOVE SELF March 02, 2021 http://www.redhookrotaryclub.org/ www.facebook.com/RedHookRotaryClub Marking the 50th week of “stay at home” meetings required by the coronavirus outbreak, Jennifer Van Voorhis called the Zoom meeting to order at 8:05 am. Eleven club members attended including Linda Greenblatt, Fred Cartier, Jonah Triebwasser, Tim Lynch, Carl Dowden, Dave Wright, Jennifer Van Voorhis and Susan Simon, Bud Weaver, Rob Latimer and Chris Chale. The meeting started with the pledge, the Four-Way test and a blessing by Hon. Jonah Triebwasser. Jennifer Van Voorhis o Thank you to everyone that participated in our celebration February 23rd. It was fun and very informational. o She also expressed gratitude to the members that helped with the Feb 27th food drive from shoveling snow, carrying bags of groceries to helping with the sorting of can goods. Through efforts of social media, we were able to add approximately 24 cases of food to the Red Hook Responds Local Food Pantry. o We also discussed some adjustments to the guest speaker list which Jennifer will discuss with Susan Ezrati. o Jennifer is also going to create a more formal Business meeting agenda for the club business meetings as requested by several members. Hon. Jonah Triebwasser shared RadioRotary upcoming guest: Cara Mia from Hope On A Mission. She continues to do great work with the homeless in the Poughkeepsie area with the support from several Rotary clubs. Tune in to the award-winning RadioRotary on Sunday, February 7th at 6:25 a.m.
