welcome back!<br />
Dear <strong>East</strong> <strong>Ramapo</strong> Community,<br />
This summer, the New York State Education Department announced that nine of the seventeen high-achieving/<br />
gap-closing schools in Rockland County are in <strong>East</strong> <strong>Ramapo</strong>! In this era of high standards and accountability, this<br />
is a remarkable achievement of which we can be proud. Such results are what is generated when our talented staff,<br />
involved parents, dedicated administration and caring Board of Education work together to support and inspire<br />
our students.<br />
<strong>East</strong> <strong>Ramapo</strong> is a wondrous district of challenge and achievement. This calendar reflects our depth and richness.<br />
Please enjoy it and use it throughout the year to keep abreast of district and school activities. In fact, I hope to<br />
see you often at <strong>East</strong> <strong>Ramapo</strong> functions.<br />
Best wishes for a healthy, happy and successful 2006/2007 school year for all of our students, staff and their families!<br />
September<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Dr. Mitchell J. Schwartz<br />
Superintendent<br />

The <strong>East</strong> <strong>Ramapo</strong> Central School District in collaboration with<br />
the Finkelstein Memorial Library has established The Mobile<br />
Library for children in grades 1-6.<br />
The wide selection of library books includes an array of grade<br />
level fiction and non-fiction stories, which were carefully chosen<br />
for our uniquely diverse community.<br />
Checking out books is easy! Just remember that Children must<br />
use their Finkelstein Memorial Library - library card. They can<br />
return the books directly to the Mobile Library or to the<br />
Finkelstein Memorial Library. (Please note that we are requesting<br />
that you not return to books to any of the other local libraries.)<br />

rain, or emergencies such as loss of water or heat in the building may dictate that schools<br />
close or students be dismissed early. In the event that school is closed or the opening is<br />
delayed, you may obtain information:<br />

the skills and knowledge gained in the classroom by answering reading<br />
comprehension questions that demonstrate their understanding of<br />
the passages.<br />
For the Listening section of the ELA test, students listen to a passage<br />
and apply skills and knowledge gained in the classroom to answer<br />
comprehension questions. The questions are designed to demonstrate<br />
students’ understanding of the passage.<br />

that every child should be given the wish to learn.<br />

*Emergency Closings (Unused Emergency Closing Days)<br />
It is the desire of the Board of Education that school not be in session on those days within this<br />
school calendar that have been asterisked.<br />
These days are Tuesday, February 20th and Monday, April 2nd<br />
The asterisked (*) days may be required to fulfill the 181-day instructional school year. It is the<br />
desire for the school district NOT to be in session on these dates. However, if schools are closed<br />
for more than the days allotted for emergency closings (4 built in days) then the asterisked days may<br />
be required as “School Days” to meet the instructional calendar. Therefore, students and staff are<br />
advised NOT to make plans on these dates. It is hoped that the 4 built in days will be sufficient.<br />
A two-hour early dismissal for students on specified Thursdays has been scheduled to allow for<br />
staff development activities. Please note that while the district anticipates no reason to depart from<br />
the staff development schedule, if for any reason the Board of Education determines these periods<br />
should not be used for that purpose, these days would return to full days of instruction for students.<br />
If any of the 4 emergency closing dates built into the calendar are not used, the Superintendent<br />
will determine additional days off.<br />
