A STATEMENT TO OUR SCHOOL COMMUNITY IS POSTED HERE. 6/15/20 STATEMENT TO THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY: The Nyack Union Free School District Board of Education, the Superintendent, and Administration stand resolutely against all acts of racism and in solidarity with black and brown students, administrators, faculty, staff and families in our community. In the wake of the violent killings of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery, we have seen largely peaceful protests, including a remarkable, youth-led demonstration, which drew a beautifully diverse crowd of thousands of neighbors to downtown Nyack this past week. This Board of Education and Administration feel the anger and hurt of our black and brown communities in the face of brutal injustice. We affirm without equivocation that Black Lives Matter. And, we pledge to confront systemic racism whenever and wherever it occurs in our District. We also celebrate the courage, commitment, and resilience of our students. We pledge to amplify their cries for equity as we work with all our community partners to ensure that young people of color—along with their families, and our faculty and staff—feel valued and safe in our schools. The mission of Nyack Public Schools is “Building Bridges for today's students to cross into tomorrow's world with Equity, Innovation and Optimism.” Equity comes first, and it must continue to come first in everything we do. As we endeavor to dismantle systemic racism and end racial disparities in academic outcomes, disciplinary actions, Special Education referrals and more, our work must uplift and center black and brown voices. Over the past several years, we have seen our administrators, staff, faculty and Board join courageous conversations, challenge inequities and support each other in pursuit of a District culture that lives up to our core values—and recognizes the role of educators in helping to create a more just and equitable world. We, your Board of Education, and the Leadership of Nyack Public Schools, share those values and validate the role our teachers and staff play. We believe in the ability of our public schools to catalyze positive change, and commend the young people of Nyack for leading our community towards reconciliation, healing, and hope. Sincerely, The Nyack School Board, Superintendent and Leadership Team of Nyack Schools Communications The Education Continuity Plan for ALL ELEMENTARY STUDENTS, K-5, is linked HERE Nyack Public Schools have created a District-wide Plan education continuity of all students in the event that schools close due to Coronavirus (COVID-19).

It is hard to believe it but we have arrived at our Mid-Winter Recess point. We are now more than halfway through this school year. That in itself is amazing. As I reflect on this year, like you I see all of the challenges and obstacles that a pandemic can put in our way. Yet, I also see the amazing resilience of our school community rushing to actively meet and overcome those challenges and obstacles together. For that I am so grateful and thankful to all of you, our staff and those amazing students of Upper Nyack Elementary School. You are all demonstrating that grit that will lead to the children’s success. I know it is not easy but I also know that we will keep working hard and doing our best. We have no choice because that hard work, determination and perseverance that you are all exhibiting is for the children. We will succeed. We have done so much but must continue to push ourselves for these children. Believe me, we know how hard this has been on our families. We truly appreciate all you are doing. I can tell you that we were all in awe when we arrived at Upper Nyack on Thursday morning and saw that beautiful token of appreciation from our families. I would like to personally thank our parent community, the P.T.A., Cynthia Bing and Mirian Rivera for putting it together. Thank you so much on behalf of our Upper Nyack Staff. I would be remiss in this letter not to pay tribute to our staff. Every single member of our staff has truly tried each day to go above and beyond to make this situation work. From keeping your children safe in school to working with students physically in front of them and remotely at home all at the same time. They have bee...
