ENGAGE. EMPOWER. New Rochelle’s My Brother’s Keeper Initiative: The City of New Rochelle and its Schools Accept President Obama’s Call to Action On behalf of the City government and the School District of New Rochelle, we are proud to accept and support our community’s Action Plan for addressing the critical objectives of My Brother’s Keeper. New Rochelle is a remarkably complex and diverse city -- faced with challenges and yet also endowed with the resources and commitment through which these challenges can be overcome. It is our hope and intent that the specific recommendations that follow will provide more young people with a meaningful opportunity to achieve their potential and contribute fully to the common good. We can accomplish this purpose by: • Orienting the New Rochelle community to the importance of MBK’s goals and to our shared stake in nurturing opportunity for all youth, particularly boys and young men of color; • Communicating the wide range of services and support networks already available in New Rochelle; • Collaborating on a broader scale to use resources more effectively and to learn from each other; • Maximizing and leveraging New Rochelle’s programmatic and physical assets; and • Creating new initiatives to fill service gaps and support all those engaged in this vital mission. Success in this endeavor will benefit every resident of New Rochelle, while upholding the core principles of a just, equitable, and dynamic city and society. We express our sincere gratitude to the scores of public and private agencies, not-for-profit organizations, parents, students, educators, advocates, and civic leaders, who devoted time, energy, and wisdom to this document. And we look forward to extending this broad partnership as we move from developing plans to acting upon them. Together, let us Embrace, Engage and Empower so all our young people can lead rewarding lives and achieve their dreams. Let us be our brothers’ keepers. Sincerely, Photo by: Legacy Studios Noam Bramson Brian G. Osborne, Ed.D Mayor of New Rochelle Superintendent of Schools We are grateful to all our Elected Officials and to the Community Partners listed here as they join us in striving to reach the goals outlined in the My Brother’s Keeper Challenge.

Values Statement The College fulfills its mission by pursuing three ideals: excellence in education, a sense of community, and a commitment to service. These ideals were handed down to us by the Marist Brothers who founded the College. Now an independent institution governed by a lay board of trustees, Marist continues to embrace the three ideals as an integral part of the College mission. Excellence in Education Marist achieves its ideal of excellence in undergraduate, graduate, and professional education by actively engaging each student through exemplary teaching and distinc- tive learning opportunities. At the undergraduate level, this begins with a firm foundation in the liberal arts and sciences. Through the core curriculum and major fields of study, students learn to think logically and creatively, to synthesize and integrate methods and insights from a variety of disciplines, and to express themselves effectively orally, in writing, and through media.

  • Westchester County and New Rochelle Background
    5. BACKGROUND INFORMATION AND EXISTING CONDITIONS New Rochelle’s location on Westchester’s Long Island Sound shore places it within one of the state’s wealthiest counties. According to 1995 estimates from the United States Census Bureau, Westchester has New York’s fourth- highest median income, at $53,043. Only Putnam, Nassau, and Rockland, also New York City suburbs, and all much smaller in size than Westchester’s 443 square miles, has a greater median income. 5.1.1 WESTCHESTER COUNTY: HISTORY As shown in the map at left, Westchester County borders, on its south, the New York City borough of the Bronx. According to historian Frank E. Sanchis, this location at New York City’s doorstep has “always put it in the center of activity relative to the balance of the nation.” Indeed, Westchester’s development has historically been fueled by its proximity to what has been, since 1820, America’s largest city. Before the days of railroads or highways, Westchester had the trade routes of the Hudson River and Long Island Sound. In the 18th century, the primitive post roads to Albany and Boston were cut through Westchester’s rolling, wooded hills. When New York City’s population boomed after the 1825 completion of the Erie Canal, Westchester furnished many of the city’s raw and finished goods. Iron foundries were located throughout the county, and Westchester’s numerous brickyards and marble quarries provided the materials for the thousands of row houses and monumental new institutional buildings spreading across Manhattan. When Newgate Prison in Greenwich Village was no longer adequate, it was replaced in 1828 by Sing Sing, “up the river” in Westchester County.
