2 Oceanside Schools 2 Anchored Together 0 BY PURPOSE PASSION, AND PEOPLE 0 1 1 7 8 SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS Oceanside Schools...anchored together by purpose, passion and people.

Dear Oceanside Families and Community Members,

I am excited, as always, to welcome you and your children to a new school year! The 2017-18 year promises many new opportunities for students in literacy, number sense, computer technology, coding, business and career studies, STEM, history, community service, and citizenship to name a few of our upcoming initiatives. I hope you will take a look at the Goals and Objectives we have established for the coming year to learn more. They can be found on our website, oceansideschools.org.

We are rolling out a newly redesigned website to enhance our communication with you and strengthen the partnership between home and school. Our goal is to provide a more current, user-friendly site for our school district families. Please visit and share your feedback with us. DR. PHYLLIS S. HARRINGTON This coming year, we’ve chosen the following theme to focus our teaching and learning goals:

Individually, we are a drop. Together, we are the ocean.

This statement reminds us that every effort is meaningful when it is made with sincere desire for the best outcome. Whether it is our students striving to reach their fullest potential, our staff working hard to help every child succeed, our families supporting their children’s personal and intellectual growth, or our entire community, banding together to give back in ways that strengthen ties and help our neighbors, every single drop adds up to a powerful and beautiful ocean. In keeping with that ideal, we hope that you will use this calendar to stay involved with our schools by participating in the some of the many events and activities featured within. There are numerous ways to revel in your child’s accomplishments, enjoy bonding time with your child and other families, and become informed and active via our Board of Education meetings, PTA, PASS seminars, DAWC events and much more. Please join me in looking forward to a wonderful, fulfilling school year. Together we can be a mighty ocean, full of depth, strength and immeasurable beauty. Sincerely, Dr. Phyllis S.

35 Ahera Managememt Plan notification

In accordance with 40 CFR §763.84.c, regard this statement as the district’s annual notification to all workers, students and or their legal guardians that the district continues to maintain its Asbestos Management Plan (AMP) which documents all performed or planned asbestos related inspections, response actions, and post-response action activities, including periodic re-inspection and surveillance activities within the school district. A copy of this AMP is available for your review and or inspection at the district’s facilities office and within the main office of each school building. Notification to persons in parental relation and staff pursuant to Section 409-H of the State Education Law* Dear Parent, Guardian, and School Staff: New York State Education Law Section 409-H, effective July 1, 2001, requires all public and non-public elementary and secondary schools to provide written notification to all persons in parental relation, faculty, and staff regarding the potential use of pesticides periodically throughout the school year. The Oceanside School District is required to maintain a list of persons in parental relation, faculty and staff who wish to receive 48 hour prior written notification of certain pesticide applications. The following pesticide applications are not subject to prior notification requirements: • A school remains unoccupied for a continuous 72-hours following an application; • Anti-microbial products; • Nonvolatile rodenticides in tamper resistant bait stations in areas inaccessible to children; • Nonvolatile insecticidal baits in tamper resistant bait stations in areas inaccessible to children; • Silica gels and other nonvolatile ready-to-use pastes, foams, or gels in areas inaccessible to children; • Boric acid and disodium octaborate tetrahydrate; • The application of EPA designated biopesticides; • The application of EPA designated exempt materials under 40CFR152.25; • The use of aerosol products with a directed spray in containers of 18 fluid ounces or less when used to protect individuals from an imminent threat from stinging and biting insects including venomous spiders, bees, wasps, and hornets. In the event of an emergency application necessary to protect against an imminent threat to human health, a good faith effort will be made to supply written notification to those on the 48-hour prior notification list. If you would like to receive 48-hour prior notification of pesticide applications that are scheduled to occur in your school, please complete the form below and return it to R. Schloth, The Oceanside School District pesticide representative at: 145 Merle Avenue, Oceanside, NY 11572. Please feel free to contact R.
