  SUMMER PROGRAM UPDATE
  
  We wish to thank families for their interest in our advertised summer opportunities for your children. Our summer student programming for all families who have registered and expressed interest will be on parallel tracks, with academic components offered through provider Catapult Learning, through our own dual language and ENL teachers, and through our dedicated special education staff in their Extended School Year Program. All of these groups of students will then have the opportunity during the other half of the day to participate in enrichment/recreational activities through our additional partners, Wellcore and the Carver Center.
  
  All of our programs are designed to provide academic instruction and enrichment/recreation opportunities. Enrollment/registration emails for each of these programs are being emailed to families by June 2, so families should be on the lookout for correspondence directly from the district or from Catapult Learning regarding your children's participation in programs.
  
  We look forward to having interested children be part of our programming from July 5-August 12, Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m.-3:30 p.m. during the summer of 2022. Regretfully, we have not been able to secure a willing provider for child care from 3:30-5:30, and so students participating in our summer programs will need to be picked up by 3:30 daily or authorized to be released to walk home. Thank you for your understanding.

  ACTUALIZACIÓN DEL PROGRAMA DE VERANO

  Deseamos agradecer a las familias por su interés en nuestras oportunidades de verano. Nuestra programación de estudiantes de verano para todas las familias que se han registrado y expresado interés ocurrirá simultaneamente, con componentes académicos ofrecidos a través del proveedor Catapult Learning, a través de nuestros propios maestros de idioma dual y de ENL, y a través de nuestro dedicado personal de educación especial en su Programa de Año Escolar Extendido. Todos estos grupos de estudiantes tendrán la oportunidad durante la otra mitad del día de participar en actividades recreativas/de enriquecimiento a través de nuestros socios adicionales, Wellcore y Carver Center.
  
  Todos nuestros programas están diseñados para brindar instrucción académica y oportunidades de enriquecimiento/recreación. Los correos electrónicos de inscripción/registro para cada uno de estos programas se enviarán por correo electrónico a las familias antes del 2 de junio, por lo que las familias deben estar atentas a la correspondencia directamente del distrito o de Catapult Learning con respecto a la participación de sus hijos en los programas.
  
  Esperamos que los niños interesados ​​sean parte de nuestra programación del 5 de julio al 12 de agosto, de lunes a viernes, de 8:00 a. m. a 3:30 p. m. durante el verano de 2022. Lamentablemente, no hemos podido asegurar un proveedor dispuesto para el cuidado de niños de 3:30 a 5:30, por lo que los estudiantes que participan en nuestros programas de verano deberán ser recogidos a las 3:30 todos los días o autorizados para que caminen solos a su casa. Gracias por su comprensión.

• A message to our community

  Dear Port Chester Ramily,

  It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I write to you. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of those who so tragically lost their lives in yesterday's senseless shooting at an elementary school in Texas. The loss of life, especially of those so young, is heartbreaking. 

  There will be headlines that your children will see, which may result in questions. Please know that your school community is available to support students and families during the days ahead. It’s important that your children know that they are safe in our schools. There are teams of social workers, school counselors, and school psychologists available to support your child. 

  Please know there are no active threats to our buildings. However, I have spoken with both the Port Chester and Rye Brook police and there will be a stronger police presence in and around our schools. We remain committed to keeping all students and staff safe, first and foremost. 

  We encourage you to remind your children and members of our community to report any unusual or suspicious behavior.

  We continually work with outside consultants and our law enforcement partners on validating best practices, identifying improvement opportunities, training our staff, and maintaining strong emergency response procedures when necessary. As we learn more about what led to this event, we will again carefully evaluate our safety and security measures to ensure the safest possible environment for our school community.  

  There is nothing more important than our students and their well-being, and we remain committed to doing all that we can to ensure their safety. Our hearts remain with the families of Texas. 

  Dr. Aurelia L. Henriquez
  Superintendent of Schools

  Estimada Ramily de Port Chester,

  Es con gran tristeza y un corazón pesado que les escribo. Nuestros pensamientos y oraciones están con las familias de aquellos que perdieron la vida tan trágicamente en el tiroteo sin sentido de ayer en una escuela primaria en Texas. La pérdida de vidas, especialmente de personas tan jóvenes, es desgarradora.

  Habrá titulares que verán sus hijos, lo que puede producir preguntas. Tenga en cuenta que su comunidad escolar está disponible para apoyar a los estudiantes y las familias durante los próximos días. Es importante que sus hijos sepan que están seguros en nuestras escuelas. Hay equipos de trabajadores sociales, consejeros escolares y psicólogos escolares disponibles para apoyar a su hijo(a).

  Tenga en cuenta que no hay amenazas activas para nuestros edificios. Sin embargo, he hablado con la policía de Port Chester y Rye Brook y habrá una mayor presencia policial en nuestras escuelas y sus alrededores. Seguimos comprometidos a mantener seguros a todos los estudiantes y al personal, ante todo.

  Le alentamos a recordarles a sus hijos y miembros de nuestra comunidad que informen cualquier comportamiento inusual o sospechoso.

  Trabajamos continuamente con consultores externos y nuestros socios encargados de hacer cumplir la ley para validar las mejores prácticas, identificar oportunidades de mejora, capacitar a nuestro personal y mantener sólidos procedimientos de respuesta a emergencias cuando sea necesario. A medida que aprendamos más sobre lo que condujo a este evento, nuevamente evaluaremos cuidadosamente nuestras medidas de seguridad y protección para garantizar el entorno más seguro posible para nuestra comunidad escolar.

  Dr. Aurelia Henriquez
  Superintendent of Schools

• PCSD Environmental Update, April 12, 2022

  This is an update from the Port Chester School District.  In partnership with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and representatives from the Rye Brook Department of Public Works, it was determined that a section of the storm line that leads from the rear of Port Chester Middle School was the cause of the blue water observed earlier today.  The following measures were taken to address and correct this situation: 1) the storm line was vacuumed, 2) the 20” storm line was cleaned with a high-pressure jet cleaning tool, and 3) the total length of the mouth of the brook was closely monitored with a camera to ensure the storm line is free of any obstructions or foreign materials.  Thank you.

  Esta es una actualización del Distrito Escolar de Port Chester. En asociación con el Departamento de Conservación Ambiental del Estado de Nueva York y representantes del Departamento de Obras Públicas de Rye Brook, se determinó que una sección de la línea de tormenta que conduce desde la parte trasera de la Escuela Intermedia de Port Chester (PCMS) fue la causa del agua azul observada el día de hoy. Se tomaron las siguientes medidas para atender y corregir esta situación: 1) se aspiró la línea de tormentas, 2) se limpió la línea de tormentas de 20” con una herramienta de limpieza de alta presión y 3) la longitud total de la boca del arroyo fue monitoreado de cerca con una cámara para asegurar que la línea de tormenta esté libre de obstrucciones o materiales extraños. Gracias.

• After-school STEM program a big draw for English language learners

  Port Chester Schools' after-school STEM program for English language learners was launched last year as a four-week initiative in two elementary school buildings. This year it has blossomed into a fully developed initiative, bridging crucial STEM instruction with language acquisition and critical thinking skills. Sessions last six weeks and take place in all four elementary buildings and at the middle school, with 250 students participating and another 10 cohorts starting in May. The concept began with what Felipe Orozco, the district's Director of ELLs and Bilingual Programs Felipe Orozco envisioned as a way to meet the needs of transitioning and expanding English language learners.

• Mask Mandate Update/ Actualización del uso de máscaras

  Good afternoon. This is an important message from Port Chester Public Schools to district families and staff.

  The designation of “COVID-19 Community Levels” is a new tool to help communities decide what prevention steps to take based on the latest data. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), "Community Levels can be low, medium, or high and are determined by looking at hospital beds being used, hospital admissions, and the total number of new COVID-19 cases in the area." The CDC tool indicates that Westchester County is currently considered a LOW level area. 

  As a result, the Governor has lifted the mask mandate. Effective Wednesday, March 2, 2022, mask-wearing by students, faculty, and staff in all district buildings will be optional. Parents and Guardians will continue to have the option of having their child wear a mask while in school. Please speak with your children regarding this decision. This is a decision that must be treated with mutual respect by all. However, in keeping with the CDC recommendations and federal rules, masks will still be required on buses. 

  Thank you for your ongoing patience and support. Please reach out to your building principal with any questions. We will continue to share the latest information with our school community as developments take place.

  We are waiting for further clarification regarding  buses and will continue to update the community as soon as we have definitive news.

  Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.

  Buenas tardes. Este es un mensaje importante de las Escuelas Públicas de Port Chester para las familias y el personal del distrito.

  La designación de "Niveles de COVID-19 de las comunidades” es una nueva herramienta para ayudar a las comunidades a decidir qué pasos de prevención tomar basado en los datos más recientes. Según el Centro para el Control y la Prevención de Enfermedades (CDC), "los niveles comunitarios pueden ser bajos, medios o altos y se determinan al observar las camas de hospital que se usan, las admisiones al hospital y la cantidad total de nuevos casos de COVID-19 en el área." La herramienta de la CDC indica que el condado de Westchester actualmente se considera un área de nivel BAJO.

  Por este motivo, la Gobernadora ha decidido terminar el requerimiento obligatorio de las máscaras. A partir del miércoles 2 de marzo del 2022, el uso de mascarillas por parte de los estudiantes, profesores y personal en todos los edificios del distrito será opcional. Los padres y tutores seguirán teniendo la opción de que sus hijos usen una máscara mientras están en la escuela. Hable con sus hijos sobre esta decisión. Esta es una decisión que debe ser tratada con respeto mutuo por todos. Sin embargo, de acuerdo con las recomendaciones de la CDC y las reglas federales, aún se requerirán máscaras en los autobuses.

  Gracias por su constante paciencia y apoyo. Comuníquese con el director(a) de su edificio si tiene alguna pregunta. Continuaremos compartiendo la información más reciente con nuestra comunidad escolar a medida que se produzcan desarrollos.

  Gracias por su cooperación y comprensión.

• Presence of Coliform found in two water sources | Presencia de coliform encontrados en dos fuentes de agua

  El espanol esta debajo. 

  Hello KSS Families, 

  It has been brought to our attention that the water main work and fire hydrant replacement, being conducted near King Street Elementary School, may be the cause of the presence of coliform (a bacteria) in two specific water sources in the school. Coliform is not lethal but can cause a variety of other symptoms. The District has shut down these sources (one sink and one bottle filling station), out of an abundance of caution and will retest both sources on Monday. All other potable water sources in the school have been tested and there is no evidence of Coliform bacteria in other water sources. We will continue to keep you updated on the work being conducted by the water company in the area and the results of the tests that Port Chester School District will conduct.

  Sincerely,

  Samuel Ortiz, Principal

  Hola familias de KSS, 

  Ha sido traído a nuestra atención que el trabajo de cañería principal y el reemplazo de hidrante de incendios, conducido cerca de la Escuela de King Street School, puede ser la causa de la presencia de coliform (unas bacteria) en dos fuentes de echar agua en la escuela. El Coliform no es letal, pero puede causar una variedad de otros síntomas. El Distrito ha cerrado estas fuentes (un caño y una fuente de echar agqua a los botellas), de una abundancia de precaución y probará de nuevo ambas fuentes el lunes.  Todas otras fuentes de echar agua potables en la escuela han sido probadas y no hay ningunas pruebas de bacterias Coliform.  Seguiremos dando les informacion sobre el trabajo conducido por la compañía de agua en el área y los resultados de las pruebas que el Distrito conducirá.

• Police Incident at King Street School (6/2/22)| Incidente policial en King Street School (6/2/22)

  This morning, a small, quarter-sized, sealable plastic bag was found in one of the classrooms at King Street School. The bag was empty, however a dry white residue was noticeable inside. Because the substance was unidentifiable, the Port Chester Police Department was consulted. The police believe the substance was an illegal narcotic. 

  According to protocol, a K-9 unit responded to the school to conduct a search of the classroom. Students were relocated to another part of the building during the search. No other evidence was found, and the bag was turned over to the police. The police deemed the classroom to be safe for students, and the classroom was subsequently disinfected. There was very little interruption to the school day, however we understand that any police presence at school may amplify anxiety in light of current events. Please understand that there was no immediate danger to anyone on campus and that this matter is under investigation. Families from the affected classroom were directly contacted by the school.

  Thank you for your understanding and support.

  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Esta mañana, se encontró una pequeña bolsa de plástico del tamaño de una moneda en una de las aulas de la Escuela King Street. La bolsa estaba vacía, sin embargo, se notaba un residuo blanco seco en el interior. Debido a que la sustancia no era identificable, se consultó al Departamento de Policía de Port Chester. La policía cree que la sustancia era un narcótico ilegal.

  De acuerdo con el protocolo, una unidad K-9 respondió a la escuela para realizar una búsqueda en el salón de clases. Los estudiantes fueron reubicados en otra parte del edificio durante la búsqueda. No se encontraron otras pruebas y la bolsa fue entregada a la policía. La policía consideró que el aula era segura para los estudiantes y después se desinfectó el salón. Hubo muy poca interrupción del día escolar, sin embargo, entendemos que cualquier presencia policial en la escuela puede aumentar la ansiedad debido a los acontecimientos actuales. Por favor comprenda que no hubo peligro inmediato para nadie en la escuela y que este asunto está bajo investigación. Las familias del aula afectada fueron contactadas directamente por la escuela.

  Gracias por su entendimiento y apoyo.
