Governor Cuomo has announced that schools are to remain closed through the end of the academic year. The Southern Westchester BOCES instructional and administrative teams will continue to provide learning opportunities remotely during this time. Please reach out with any questions, concerns, feedback or stories of success to share along the way. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to all of our teachers and to all of the partners that support their work. You are making a difference for children every day.
