From the desk of the Superintendent: Martin Cox, Ed.D. WELCOME DEAR CLARKSTOWN SCHOOL COMMUNITY: I hope you and your family members have enjoyed a relaxing and rewarding summer. The last 18 months have been arguably the most challenging times in the history of public schools. Despite the challenges presented to all of us by the health pandemic, I am thankful and appreciative of the high level of perseverance by faculty, staff, administration and parents in order for our students to succeed to the best of their abilities. Looking ahead to 2021-22, whatever the challenges that stand in our way, we will continue to work diligently in order to serve students while seeking to meet all of their needs: academically, socially, emotionally, and physically. I welcome your partnership as we seek to stay strong and healthy together while seeking to move closer and closer to a sense of “normalcy” in our community and global society. The District calendar contains dates for events that I hope become reality in our school community, depending on the safety protocols in place as a result of the pandemic state of affairs. Please visit the district website throughout the year for any potential updates and adjustments to our calendar. Best wishes for a rewarding school year! Thank you. Sincerely, Martin D. Cox, Ed.D. Superintendent of Schools CCSD, in partnership with the community, will meet the individual academic and social-emotional needs of all students within a safe environment while Our MISSION empowering them to reach their full potential in a complex society. 3 Clarkstown Central School Calendar 2021-22 AUGUST2021 August SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING 7:30–10PM 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 ONAM 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 FALL HIGH SCHOOL SHS Freshmen FFMS Grade 6 SPORTS BEGIN Orientation for Students Orientation 9AM–1PM NHS Freshmen Orientation SHS Freshmen (Mentors Only) 8–10AM Orientation for Parents NHS Freshmen Orientation 7–8PM 10:30AM–12:30PM BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING 8–10PM 29 SUPERINTENDENT’S 30 SUPERINTENDENT’S 31 CONFERENCE DAY CONFERENCE DAY LP K Social 11:30AM BD K Social LW K Ice Pop Social WN K Ice Cream Social 11:30AM–12:30PM 11:30AM NC K Social 11:30AM LK Visit New Teacher and NC PTA Welcome Classroom 12PM New Families 6:30–7:30PM ST Ice Pop Social 12PM LT K Social 12:30PM WG K Social 1PM NHS SHS BD LW LP LK LT NC ST WN WG BW FFMS CLARKSTOWN CLARKSTOWN BARDONIA LAKEWOOD LAUREL PLAINS LINK LITTLE TOR NEW CITY STRAWTOWN WEST NYACK WOODGLEN BIRCHWOOD FELIX FESTA NORTH SOUTH Clarkstown Central School Calendar 2021-22 5 SEPTEMBER2021 September SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL 1 ALL FALL MODIFIED 2 3 4 MODIFIED FOOTBALL BEGINS SPORTS BEGIN ST Coffee & Kleenex 8AM (except Football) NC Coffee & Kleenex 8:15AM BD Coffee & Kleenex 8:30AM LT PTA Back to School Coffee 8:30AM WN Coffee & Kleenex 8:30AM LW Coffee & Kleenex 8:45AM LK New Family Meet & Greet 9AM 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 LABOR DAY ROSH HASHANAH ROSH HASHANAH NC PTA Meeting WN Welcome Back THE DAY WE WILL (Schools Closed) (Schools Closed) (Schools Closed) 7PM Picnic 5:30–7PM NEVER FORGET 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 NATIONAL ARTS IN NHS Picture Day FEAST OF THE CROSS SHS Picture Day YOM KIPPUR LT Welcome Back BBQ WN Grade 5 Car Wash EDUCATION WEEK ST Class Parent NHS/SHS Picture Day (Schools Closed) 5–7PM 1–4PM (September 12-18) Meeting 2PM NHS North 101 5:30–6:30PM LW Back to School NHS Back To School Night Picnic 5–7PM ST PTA Meeting 7PM 6:30–8:30PM WG PTA Meeting 7PM LK General PTA Meeting ST Welcome Back Picnic 7PM 5:30–7:30PM BOARD OF EDUCATION WORKSHOP & MEETING 7:30–10PM 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 WG Grade 5 Car Wash LP Meet the Teacher SUKKOT (September 21-27) FIRST DAY OF FALL BD Meet the Teacher LK Welcome Back BBQ BD Grade 5 Car Wash 6:30PM INTERNATIONAL DAY NC Principal’s Address 6:30 PM 6:30PM 9AM–12PM & PTA Budget Vote 6PM LW PTA Meeting OF PEACE FFMS Grade 6 Meet the LT Welcome Back BBQ WG Meet the Teacher (Rain Date) 5–7PM 6:45–8PM LW Meet the Teacher (K-2) (Special Class/3-5) 6PM Teacher 6:30 PM 7PM NC Meet the Teacher NC PTA Back to School BBQ WN Meet the Teacher ST Meet the Teacher (K-2) 5:30-8:30PM Virtual LW Meet the Teacher 5:30–7PM 7PM SHS Back to School Night (3-5) 7PM ST Picnic (Rain date) 5:30PM PTA Council Meeting 7:30PM 6:30PM WN Welcome Back Picnic WG Meet the Teacher (3-5) (Rain Date) 5:30–7PM BOARD OF EDUCATION 6:30PM WORKSHOP 7–8 PM LT Meet the Teacher 6:45PM 26 27 28 29 30 WG Grade 5 Car Wash LT Picture Day SHEMINI ATZERET SIMCHAT TORAH FFMS Picture Day (Rain Date) LP PTA Meeting 8PM LK Meet the Teacher (K-2) WG Meet the Teacher LW PTA Mums Sale WN Grade 5 Car Wash 7PM (Special Class/1-2) 6PM FFMS Meet the Teacher (Rain Date) 1–4PM ST Meet the Teacher (3-5) (K-2) 6:30PM (7-8) 6:30PM 7PM LK Meet the Teacher (3-5) SHS College Process for WN PTA Meeting 7PM 7PM Sr. Parents 7PM LT PTA Meeting 7:30PM NHS SHS BD LW LP LK LT NC ST WN WG BW FFMS CLARKSTOWN CLARKSTOWN BARDONIA LAKEWOOD LAUREL PLAINS LINK LITTLE TOR NEW CITY STRAWTOWN WEST NYACK WOODGLEN BIRCHWOOD FELIX FESTA NORTH SOUTH Clarkstown Central School Calendar 2021-22 7 OCTOBER2021 October SUNDAY MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY 1 2 n NATIONAL BULLYING SHS SAT PREVENTION MONTH BD Grade 5 Car Wash CLARKSTOWN FAMILY RESOURCE CENTER n NATIONAL PRINCIPALS (Rain Date) 9AM–12PM PRESCHOOL PLAYGROUP DATES (9-10AM) MONTH FFMS Picture Day WG & NC October 5 LP & BD October 18 LK Welcome Back BBQ ST & WN October 1 LK, LT & LW October 27 (Rain Date) 6:30PM 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 BW Picture Day BD PTA Meeting WN Picture Day WN Picture Day LW Picture Day SHS PTSA Meeting LP Back to School 7PM Social 5PM BW Meet the Teacher 7PM BOARD OF EDUCATION MEETING 8–10PM 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 COLUMBUS DAY PTA Council Meeting EARLY RELEASE DAY NC Scholastic Book Fair NC Scholastic Book Fair NC Grade 5 Car Wash (Schools Closed) Chestnut Grove NHS Senior Breakfast 10AM–3PM NATIONAL SCHOOL Conference Room SHS Senior Luncheon LUNCH WEEK 7:30PM NHS & SHS PSAT/PreACT (October 11-15) Administration SHS PSAT/PreACT Administration FFMS PTA Meeting 7PM NC Scholastic Book Fair Principals Read-In 7PM 17
