On Wednesday, July 23rd, our Summer ELA Academy at Brookside School hosted a wonderful Read-In for our Pre-K through Pre-2nd grade students. Congratulations to all who made this such an amazing gathering of young learners, their teachers, families, and supportive adults. Click on the picture to the right to enjoy the photos!
A special thanks to all those who joined us Thursday morning at our second Summer ELA Academy Read-In at Anne M. Dorner Middle School for 3rd through 5th graders. It is a very special moment when we see young people read, especially with adults as models, leading them in the acquisition of this most important of lifelong skills. Congratulations, again, to all!

Dear Parents/Guardians:
The Ossining School District recognizes and supports the importance of a quality interscholastic athletic program. It is our mission to foster the quest for excellence by creating an educational and competitive experience within an atmosphere of sportsmanship.
Students in grades 7-12 have an opportunity to participate on an interscholastic team. We encourage all interested students to get involved within our programs. Due to facility and safety concerns some teams must limit their team numbers. Tryouts will be held for the upcoming fall season in August (see back) for all OHS Varsity and JV teams and begin in September for modified sports. More Information |
Apreciados padres/Guardianes:
El Distrito Escolar de Ossining, reconoce y apoya la importancia de un programa deportivo ínter escolar de alta calidad. Es nuestra misión promover la búsqueda de la excelencia, creando una experiencia educativa y competitiva en una atmósfera de espíritu deportivo.
Los estudiantes en los grados 7-12 tienen la oportunidad de participar en un equipo ínter escolar. Animamos a todos los estudiantes interesados para que participen en nuestros programas. Debido a las inquietudes relacionadas con la seguridad y con las instalaciones, algunos equipos tienen que limitar su número de participantes. Las pruebas para la próxima temporada de otoño, para todos los equipos de la escuela secundaria (Varsity y Junior Varsity), se realizarán en agosto (ver la parte de atrás); y las pruebas para los deportes de la escuela intermedia (modified sports) empezarán en septiembre.

Contract for Excellence
The Ossining Union Free School District is mandated by the State Education Department to develop a Contract for Excellence (C4E) plan that is committed to directing foundation aid funding to students requiring greatest academic needs, implementing proven instructional programs, and ensuring that all students make yearly adequate progress by setting targets for improvement. Approved legislation regarding contract requirements applies to districts receiving an additional $15 million or a 10% increase of the funding received in the base year and has one school requiring academic progress.
The Ossining Union Free School District was identified as a C4E district last year because of the increase in funding and because some students at Ossining High School did not achieve expected yearly progress in English Language Arts. We are required to spend $356,059, 50% of funding, to support existing initiatives and $356,059, 50% of funding, to support new initiatives.
The proposed C4E initiatives listed below for the 2008-2009 school year will provide all students and targeted populations with the necessary support and enrichment to ensure academic success. See the full details of this important report. |
