Family Services of Westchester Family Services of Westchester upFAdLL 2010a tISe SUE SIXTEEN Youth Councils Lobby for Gun Control, Encourage Tolerance, Create Literacy Film and Tend Community Garden Not every Westchester teen gets to travel to Albany to lobby for sensible gun legislation but that’s what members of the Westchester County Youth Council and the Westchester County Junior Youth Council did in late April. These fortunate teens were joined by 150 other high school students and community activists from around the state at the New Yorkers Against Gun Violence event. They also spoke to four state representatives, including Amy Paulin, Mike Spano, Ruth Hassell-Thompson and Andrea Stewart-Cousins. “The sky’s the limit for what these teens can do,” says Laura Achkar, former Director of Youth Empowerment Programs at FSW. “They have so much energy and enthusiasm that they bring a lot to any cause they embrace.” For the past 10 years, FSW has run the Senior Youth Council, whose members have traveled as far as Washington DC and Los Angeles to serve as advocates for issues concerning teens. This year, the senior group led the Youth Action Convention at Pace University, which drew 300 teens from across the county to discuss ways they can stop judging people and help prevent prejudicial behavior. “Both “The sky’s the limit for what these teens can do ”. Youth Councils succeed because the participants don’t limit themselves and their thinking is valued by the administrators who oversee the groups,” says Liz Mark, a strong county advocate for youth. This year’s highlights for the senior group included: • Attending the NYS Youth Bureau Leadership Forum in Albany; • Participating in the Martin Luther King Youth Legacy Awards Ceremony; member Benjamin Muhammad won an Award in the Social Action category; • Participating in a MLK community service project, sorting relief supplies for victims of the earthquake in Haiti.

  • New York State Principals New York State's High Schools, Middle Schools and Elementary Schools an Open Letter of Concern Regar
    New York State Principals New York State’s High Schools, Middle Schools and Elementary Schools An Open Letter of Concern Regarding New York State’s APPR Legislation for the Evaluation of Teachers and Principals www.newyorkprincipals.org Over the past year, New York State has implemented dramatic changes to its schools. As building principals, we recognize that change is an essential component of school improvement. We continually examine best practices and pursue the most promising research-based school improvement strategies. We are very concerned, however, that at the state level change is being imposed in a rapid manner and without high-quality evidentiary support. Our students, teachers and communities deserve better. They deserve thoughtful reforms that will improve teaching and learning for all students. It is in this spirit that we write this letter, which sets forth our concerns and offers a path forward. We believe that it is our ethical obligation as principals to express our deep concerns about the recently implemented Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR) regulations. These regulations are seriously flawed, and our schools and students will bear the brunt of their poor design. Below we explain why we are opposed to APPR as it is presently structured. Background In May 2010, the New York State Legislature—in an effort to secure federal Race to the Top funds— approved an amendment to Educational Law 3012-c regarding the Annual Professional Performance Review (APPR) of teachers and principals. The new law states that beginning September 2011, all teachers and principals will receive a number from 0-100 to rate their performance.

    A Message from the Director SUMMER 2018 A Publication of the Southern Westchester BOCES Center for Career Services After an unusually cool spring, summer is finally upon us. Here at the Center for Career Services, we are taking a few moments to reflect on the school year that has just ended. To say that it was a successful one is really an understatement. This year, we had more students passing industry exams than ever before, and their performance in competitions like HOSA- Future Health Professionals and SkillsUSA was definitely something to be proud of. In fact, four of our students, two from the EMT Program, and two from the Veterinary Science Program, made it to the HOSA Nationals in Dallas last month, and while they didn’t come back winners, the experience was a life-changing one for them. The work that all of our students completed throughout the year and the lessons they learned are among our proudest moments. All of that is evident in Graduates from the Nursing Assistant Program pictured with instructor Alyson Keane. the quarterly awards they received, in the way they stepped up to the plate to participate Career Services Center Celebrates Student in various projects, the respect they showed their instructors and the camaraderie they Achievements with Recognition Ceremony developed with each other.

  • 2010 Roster/Schedule
    A staple in the New York region and an emerging program on the national stage, the Manhattanville College Athletic Department continues to bolster its reputation as a program on the rise in all areas: athletic achievement, academic success and overall participation. A program-record 305 Valiant student-athletes (nearly 20 percent of the student body) took part in intercollegiate athletics during the 2008- 09 season, showcasing the continued and rapid growth of athletics at Manhattanville. Following the successful integration of the men’s and women’s indoor and outdoor track teams last season, the program has expanded to a record 21 intercollegiate teams – including seven new teams established in the last two years alone. And teams at Manhattanville do not just compete, they win. Three Valiant squads (men’s basketball, baseball and men’s tennis) earned Freedom Conference regular-season championships in 2008-09 and both the men’s and women’s hockey teams spent much of the year with national rankings. Sixteen of 21 Valiant teams earned berths in their respective conference tournaments last year, including four conference championship game appearances. In all, Manhattanville teams posted an impressive .548 winning percentage (184-151-6) last season, with two Valiants teams also setting new program records for wins in a single season. On an individual level, many Valiant student-athletes were honored in 2008-09 as well. Men’s hockey forward Chris Trafford and women’s hockey center Holly Nonis became the 15th and 16th Valiants to earn All-American honors following the season, while the pair were two of four players to be named conference Player of the Year.
