During Superintendent's Conference Day at Tappan Hill School, staff engaged in multiple activities, including team building, by creating their own play dough mascots. This was such a wonderful opportunity for staff to work and learn together.
Music teacher Andrew Ruoti travels among multiple Southern Westchester BOCES Special Services locations, pushing into classroom with lessons about musical arrangement, teamwork and the passion for the arts that was sewn in him at an early age. On an October morning at Irvington High School, middle school students of varying musical experience came together on a soulful rendition of the classic Stand By Me that left them smiling at the success of their ongoing musical collaboration.
Students and staff at Rye Lake Lower Campus wore pink and participated in a walk, one of a several similar events across our campuses to mark Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Students carried signs they created bearing messages of unity and support.
“It's inspiring to see our students learn about supporting others who are dealing with difficulties," Principal Julia Dolan said. "It's gratifying for our staff to support them in such a positive display of compassion and empathy.”
