Message From The Executive Director and Senior Director

For the past 95 years, JCY-Westchester Community Partners (JCY-WCP) has been at the forefront of community life. This year JCY-WCP chose a new strategic path, one that will strengthen and enhance its effect on the community. JCY-WCP and Family Service Society of Yonkers (FSSY), a well-respected agency whose mission complements JCY-WCP’s have worked well together over the years. We came together to build on the synergistic effect of our organizational strengths with the goal of having a greater impact.

From our beginnings in Yonkers, JCY-WCP has expanded throughout Westchester County: JCY-WCP fulfills its mission: To enhance the educational experience of children in Westchester County through effective learning initiatives and the engagement of volunteer mentors with a wonderful professional staff and over 650 dedicated volunteers. We are proud to say that JCY serves over 7,000 children and families annually.

For the past 16 years, JCY-WCP has been celebrating education in Yonkers with a scholarship program and brunch. It is with great pleasure that we acknowledge the lifelong achievements of three Jewish Educators who have devoted their lives to educating our youth and recognize the achievements of 17 very deserving individuals. We congratulate those who through their hard work and achievement have a bright and exciting future ahead of them as they embark on a path of continued learning.

JCY-WCP makes a difference in the educational experience of hundreds of students each year. Whether through mentors bringing their love of reading, experiences, and compassion to a struggling child, bringing Holocaust education to the children of Westchester County, or supporting and educating the parents on the importance of education, our goal is always to break down barriers, improve our children’s future, and enrich the lives of thousands in our community. This year we began a tutoring program targeting displaced students in Yonkers and our Intro2America, where the needs of newly arrived immigrants are addressed, has resulted in a second ESL site at Lincoln High School thanks to a three year grant from New York Life Foundation. Intro2America is already a respected program along with; SMART, Open Book, Holocaust Remembrance Program, Summer Reading Buddies, and Reading Buddies After School.

JCY –WCP is Westchester’s leader in Intergenerational Volunteer Literacy Programming and spearheads Westchester’s IG Collaborative/Westchester Chapter of NYSIgN (New York State Intergenerational Network) giving it a prominent role in the Westchester. Join us on September 20, 2014 11-2 at the Greenburg Library as Westchester County celebrates the impact and benefit of Intergenerational Programs; InterGen Fest; connecting all ages.

We thank our Board of Directors and all who have worked in and supported our programs. We are dedicated to serving and strengthening Yonkers and other communities across Westchester for people of all ages. We would like to thank our Scholarship Committee under the leadership of Eric Schoen, Marla Hurban, Director of Intergenerational Programs, and the staff for their efforts to make this day successful. We also thank all of the educators who have made a difference in the lives of their students.

Enjoy this day,

Leader in Education Honoree Marnie Zolov

I began my teaching career with the Yonkers Public Schools in 1998, as a sixth grade teacher at Museum Middle School.

In 2006, I transferred to Yonkers Middle School, and in 2012, I accepted my current position as a sixth grade teacher at Hostos Elementary School.

I received a Bachelor of Education degree from Oneonta State College, a Master of Science degree in Literacy Education from the College of New Rochelle, and a Masters degree in School Building Leadership from Mercy College. I also have staff development and gifted and talented certifications.

My husband, Andrew Zolov, and I are the proud parents of Avery, age three.

I would like to thank my Principal, Ms. Elda Perez-Mejia from Hostos Elementary School and JCY-Westchester Community Partners for nominating me for this Leaders in Education Award.

14 Leader in Education Honoree

Debra Cantor

Debra Cantor went to nursery school and kindergarten in Yonkers before moving away and she didn't return until she began teaching at Montessori 27 thirty five years later. In the interim, she was raised in Huntington New York, then began her college education in Israel after graduating high school a year early, traveling in Europe and working and learning Hebrew on a kibbutz. She then returned to the Tisch School of Arts at NYU and received a BFA.

After working for several years as an assistant director in film and theater, she bought a seat on the New York Futures Exchange and worked as a commodities trader for seven years. Ultimately working with Prudential Bache and other firms. During the Gulf War, she worked for a Lebanese Oil company in Texas and then in London for a year as their lead oil trader. Returning to New York after the war, she continued to trade soybeans and other commodities until ultimately she decided it was time to go back to school.

If she was going back to school, she decided that she would like to study education and use her second language acquisition skills. Ms. Cantor continued to work during the week while studying at Adelphi University during the weekend and within six months was given a full time job teaching without a mentor in District 17, one of the toughest districts in New York at the time, at the height of the crack epidemic in Brooklyn. It was sink or swim. Within four years, she was promoted to the head of ESL for District 6, one of the largest ESL and bilingual districts in New York City. Debra completed a 2nd Masters in School Leadership and Supervision with Mercy college in a unique program where she studied directly with the Superintendent and other District staff.

In the summer of 2000, Ms. Cantor was 40 years old and had a 12 month old son -- motherhood had started on the late side. She also had two job offers on the table -- one was to run the largest ESL district in the Bronx, where she was told she "would make a tremendous difference on thousands of children" and the other was to teach in a small sweet Montessori school in Yonkers with a principal named Irene Jacobson. Obviously, the rest is history. She taught at Montessori 27 for 11 years and including 1 year that was split with School 16. She is completing her 4th year at School 16 for a total of 14 years in the district. She has been involved with every aspect of testing imaginable including being a primary writer and editor of the NY State English as a Second Language Exam and the new NYSITELL, and has been a District Scoring Leader for the NYSESLAT and the ELA as well as a Table Leader for Math. ELA, NYSESLAT and other exams. She has helped Yonkers write curriculum for the Newcomers which is being implemented today, as well as Math and Social Studies curriculum and frameworks over the years. Additionally, she has represented the district on numerous occasions in Albany, most recently as a Teacher Ambassador for the Core Curriculum. For the past four years, she has actually done all of this as a single mother to two amazing sons who are currently in 6th and 9th grades.

36 STAR SPANGLED BANNER

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming. Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight' O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming. And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. Oh, say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.
