THE WEST HEMPSTEAD UNION FREE SCHOOL DISTRICT<br />
The legal name of this <strong>School</strong> District is the West Hempstead Union Free <strong>School</strong> District. The<br />
boundaries of the District have been set under state law by the State of New York. The State Education<br />
Department maintains a close check on standards and what has legally become part of state law through<br />
the mandates of our legislature. The state allows a local Board of Education to set whatever additional<br />
policies may be deemed necessary for the proper function of the District's schools. The Board is<br />
comprised of seven public-spirited citizens who maintain residences within the District and who serve<br />
without any financial compensation in the best interests of their community. Board members are elected<br />
to office for terms of three years and once a year the members of the Board elect a President and Vice<br />
President to preside over their meetings.<br />
The District maintains a Kindergarten Center, two elementary schools, a middle school and a high<br />
school. The total school population as of June 2012, including Island Park High <strong>School</strong> students, was<br />
approximately 2,160.<br />
Address: West Hempstead Union Free <strong>School</strong> District<br />
252 Chestnut Street<br />
West Hempstead, New York 11552<br />
MISSION STATEMENT<br />
The West Hempstead Union Free <strong>School</strong> District recognizes the unique value of each student. It is<br />
dedicated to the success of each student based on the highest standards of excellence in education. Each<br />
student will be challenged to achieve mastery in all subject areas in an educational atmosphere that<br />
strives to build positive self-esteem, mutual respect for others, and a life-long quest for learning.<br />

A NOTE TO PARENTS<br />
This calendar of school events has been especially prepared for parents and community residents in the<br />
West Hempstead <strong>School</strong> District. All persons connected with our schools will find the information herein<br />
helpful. A strong partnership between parents and the schools is an important part of the quality of a child’s<br />
education. When parents and schools work together toward common goals and when parents and schools<br />
expect and enforce common standards of behavior and excellence, children learn and grow.<br />

AFTER SCHOOL ENRICHMENT PROGRAM S.C.O.P .E./<br />
WEST HEMPSTEAD ENRICHMENT PROGRAM<br />
The Board of Education accommodates a SCOPE-operated after school program for children in<br />
grades K-6. The SCOPE Program provides a safe, caring environment. Afternoons are spent working on<br />
or completing homework assignments, participating in a variety of enrichment activities and enjoying<br />
nutritious snacks. Children are picked up by their parents at or before 6 p.m.<br />
STUDY FIELD TRIPS<br />
Throughout the school year teachers and their pupils may make study field trips. The trips are an outgrowth<br />
of classroom study and carefully planned to correlate with classroom work. The number and frequency<br />
of such trips may vary according to grade level and the overall educational contribution the administration<br />
feels the trip will make to the school program. Special consideration, such as clothing, equipment, variations<br />
from school hours, etc., will be indicated when parents receive their advance notification of the<br />
planned field trip. Adequate adult supervision is provided by teachers, administrators, and/or parents. The<br />
number of chaperones will be decided in terms of the number of students, activities anticipated, and the ages<br />
of pupils.<br />
PEST MANAGEMENT PROGRAM<br />
The West Hempstead UFSD has adopted an Integrated Pest Management Program in accordance with<br />
NYS Education Regulations. This program dictates that the least toxic pesticide be used only when<br />
absolutely necessary. Any student, parent or staff member may register to receive written notification 48<br />
hours prior to a regulated pesticide application. Individuals may request that their name be added to the<br />
school registry at anytime during the school year.<br />
All interested parties should contact the District's Pesticide Representative at 390-3105, Monday<br />
through Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.<br />
EXTRA-CURRICULAR PROGRAM<br />
Extra-curricular activities are considered a necessary part of any well-rounded secondary program of<br />
studies. Each student is urged to participate in at least one extra-curricular activity or program per year.<br />
The activities program of our schools is constantly being evaluated and programs are broadened and<br />
improved by experience. Physical activities, as well as experiences in the sciences, arts, music, social studies,<br />
writing, speaking, dramatics, service, and hobbies will be offered. The Middle <strong>School</strong> maintains a yearbook<br />
publication called TRANSITION and a newspaper, THE MIDDLE SCHOOL TIMES. The High <strong>School</strong><br />
offers its newspaper, THE RAMPAGE, its yearbook, WESTERLY, and its literary-art magazine, INK BLOT.<br />
PUBLIC NOTICES<br />
The District Administrator assigned to ensure our compliance with Title IX requirements is Richard<br />
Cunningham, Deputy Superintendent, who may be contacted in writing at 252 Chestnut Street, West<br />
Hempstead, New York 11552, or by telephone at (516) 390-3103.<br />
Directory information including a student's name, address, telephone listing, date and place of birth,<br />
etc. is available to public agencies and institutions. Parents and/or guardians who do not wish such information<br />
to be made available must inform the District, in writing, that the information designated may not be<br />
released without prior consent. These letters will be kept on file in the Superintendent's office and there is<br />
no need to repeat letter writing each year.<br />
Public agencies are such groups as: the Armed Forces, Department of Social Services, Police, Fire,<br />
Sanitation Department, Congressmen and Senators, Health Department, etc. Commercial groups are not<br />
even considered.<br />
Parental requests for students to receive Special Education services in non-public schools<br />
within the district must be made in writing by June 1st preceding the school year for which the request for<br />
service is made. Anyone with a question should contact the Director of PPS at (516) 390-3242.<br />
CHILD FIND<br />
In accordance with New York Education Law Section 4402 and Part 200.2, 200.4 and 200.5 of the<br />
Commissioner’s Regulations, the Committee on Special Education is responsible for evaluating preschool<br />
and school-age students suspected of having a disability, identifying a disability or determining that no<br />
disability exists, and recommending a program and/or service within sixty (60) days of the date of the receipt<br />
of consent for evaluation. Referrals may be made at any time during the year.<br />
THE FAMILY EDUCATIONAL RIGHTS AND PRIVACY ACT (FERPA)<br />
FERPA provides that an LEA that receives Department funds may not have a policy or practice of<br />
denying parents the right to:<br />
• Inspect and review education records (34 CFR § 99.10)<br />
• Seek to amend education records (34 CFR §§ 99.20, 99.21, and 99.22)<br />
• Consent to the disclosure of personally identifiable information from education<br />
records except as specified by law (34 CFR §§ 99.30 and 99.31)<br />
• These rights transfer to the student when he or she turns 18 years of age, or enters a post-secondary<br />
educational institution at any age (“eligible student”).<br />
• Please refer to the District website @ www.whufsd.com for the Notification of Rights.<br />
EMERGENCY SCHOOL CLOSING<br />

WBZO, FOX 5..<br />
<strong>School</strong> closings are posted on the website at www.whufsd.com.<br />
The West Hempstead <strong>School</strong> District has created a two-hour delayed opening procedure to<br />
be used under certain weather related or hazardous circumstances.<br />
A 2-hour delay opening is used when the appropriate set of circumstances is present. This<br />
simply means that public schools will be open at the following times and classes would run on<br />
an abbreviated schedule.<br />
2-Hour Delayed Opening<br />
Chestnut Street <strong>School</strong> 10:30 George Washington Elementary 10:55<br />
Cornwell Ave. Elementary 10:55 West Hempstead MS/HS 9:55<br />
ALL BUSES, INCLUDING PRIVATE AND PAROCHIAL SCHOOLS, WOULD RUN APPROX-<br />
IMATELY TWO HOURS LATE AS WELL. Parents/Guardians of students who attend private<br />
schools are responsible for checking the open/closed status of the school their child attends.<br />
You will be asked to supply your school with the name and telephone number of a person who will take<br />
care of your child/children if you cannot be reached. Please do not select someone who always accompanies<br />
you and thus is out when you are out.<br />
Connect Ed is the district’s automated communication system. Early in the school year, you will be<br />
asked to update your contact information including home, work and cell phone numbers. The district will<br />
utilize this automated system to communicate with parents in the event of a school closing, emergency situations<br />
and information regarding district activities.<br />
Resident Service Announcement<br />
West Hempstead residents are welcome to become part of the West Hempstead Union Free<br />
<strong>School</strong> District's Connect Ed communication system. This system is used to provide public service<br />
announcements pertaining to school district matters. Interested residents may become part of the Connect<br />
Ed system by contacting Mrs. Theresa Bryant at 516-390-3107. District residents may also become part of<br />
an informational e-mail listserv by contacting Mr. Richard Cunningham at 516-390-3103.<br />

"Family" - means a group of related or not-related individuals, who are not residents of an institution or<br />
boarding school, but who are living as one economic unit. This includes son, daughter, relatives, etc.<br />
"Income" - means all sources of earned or unearned monies before deductions for income taxes,<br />
insurance premiums, bonds, alimony, child support, etc. which would be available to the "family"<br />
to pay the price of a child's meal.<br />
"Foster Children" - a foster child placed in a private residence, where adoption is not involved, would be<br />
eligible under the criteria for a family of one, if the income for that child does not exceed the applicable<br />
Family Income Scale. This provision is in effect regardless of the gross income of the foster parent.<br />
"Adult" - For the purpose of providing Social Security numbers, adult means all related and unrelated<br />
individuals within the household, eighteen and over, who contribute to the income of a household by<br />
sharing living and food expenses. This does not, however, include individuals between the ages of 18<br />
and 21 if they are eligible and an application has been filed to receive free and reduced price meals.<br />
NOTE: There is no allowance for hardship deductions from the above revised family Income Eligibility<br />
Guidelines. A standard deduction has already been included in all of the above income level figures.<br />
IMPORTANT NOTICE RE: STUDENT ACCIDENTS<br />

District for any legal action arising out of claims brought as a result of alleged negligence.<br />
We also carry student accident insurance that pays for medical and dental bills, not covered by the parents'<br />
primary insurance.<br />

If a child has attended and satisfactorily completed a full year's work at a registered non-public<br />
kindergarten, he/she will be admitted to first grade.<br />
If a child has attended and satisfactorily completed a full year's work in an unregistered nonpublic<br />

the kindergarten attended provides substantially equivalent instruction to that provided in<br />
a registered or public kindergarten in the opinion of the school authorities; and<br />
the pupil demonstrates physical, social and emotional maturity necessary for success in first<br />
grade in the opinion of the school authorities; and<br />
the pupil completes, to the satisfaction of school authorities, a battery of tests selected by the<br />
school.<br />
*Equivalency will be judged by using the Regulations of the Commissioner for registration of nonpublic<br />
nursery schools and/or kindergartens.<br />
(Note: Attendance at nursery school is not an acceptable substitute for kindergarten and attendance<br />
does not entitle a child to be considered for admission to the first grade.)<br />
The Board reserves the right to make other arrangements in the best interest of students who are<br />
physically or mentally handicapped or emotionally disturbed.<br />
Finally, the Board reserves the right to exclude insubordinate or disorderly students. Students who are<br />
enrolling for the first time must present proof of age to the Central Registration office. A birth certificate or<br />
passport is customary.<br />
Public Health Law requires every pupil entering a public, private, or parochial school to submit<br />
acceptable evidence of having received poliomyelitis, measles, German measles, Hepatitis B, diphtheria,<br />
Varicella, Haemophilus Influenza Type B (Hib), and mumps immunizations before being admitted to school.<br />
Additional immunizations as suggested by your physician are also recommended.<br />
The only exception from the law may be made upon receipt of a physician's statement that such<br />
immunization may be detrimental to the child's health or a written statement from parents certifying that they<br />
are bona fide members of a religious organization whose teachings are contrary to this requirement.<br />
Students who are transferring to our schools from other schools must:<br />
- Present transfer from previous school.<br />
- Present evidence of immunizations as detailed above.<br />
PUPIL PERSONNEL SERVICES<br />
Pupil personnel services are offered to the students and parents of West Hempstead. These services<br />
include psychological evaluation, speech, and health for all students in grades K-12, including the two<br />
parochial schools, St. Thomas the Apostle and the Hebrew Academy. Special Education services are provided<br />
for eligible students enrolled in schools located within the West Hempstead UFSD.<br />
Parental requests for students to receive Special Education services in non-public schools within the<br />
district must be made in writing by June 1st preceding the school year for which the request for service is<br />
made. Anyone with a question should contact the Director of PPS at (516) 390-3242.<br />
GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS FOR SENIORS<br />
Participation in the West Hempstead High <strong>School</strong> graduation ceremony is an earned privilege. Only<br />
those students who meet ALL the requirements by June of their graduating year, will be allowed to<br />
participate in the graduation ceremony. Any students who need to take summer school courses or<br />
required tests in order to satisfy graduation requirements WILL NOT be allowed to participate in the June<br />
graduation ceremony.<br />

PHYSICAL EXAMINATIONS<br />
Section 903 of the State Education Law, which provided for<br />
annual physical examinations of all pupils, has been amended to provide<br />
periodic examinations. The pertinent amendment provides as follows:<br />
Health certificate shall be furnished by each child upon entering<br />
school and on entering kindergarten, second, seventh, and tenth grades<br />
thereof. An examination of any child may be required by the local<br />
school authorities at any time in their discretion to promote the educational<br />
interests of such a child. However, an annual physical examination is<br />
recommended.<br />
This examination may be performed either by the family doctor<br />
or the school doctor. Notices will be sent home in the fall and the<br />
spring concerning this program. In addition, vision and hearing tests<br />
are given to all pupils during the school year. Parent/Guardian will be<br />
notified if a student needs to be referred for medical evaluation<br />
following vision and hearing screenings.<br />
All medication, including non-prescription drugs given in<br />
school, must have a written order from a licensed prescriber. A<br />
written statement from Parent/Guardian requesting administration<br />
of medications ordered by prescriber is required. The<br />
Parent/Guardian must assume responsibility to have the medication<br />
delivered directly to the Health Office, in a properly labeled original<br />
container. Any questions, regarding medication, please see the <strong>School</strong><br />
Nurse.<br />
HOME INSTRUCTION<br />
Home Instruction will be provided for any child enrolled in the<br />
West Hempstead Public <strong>School</strong>s who is expected to be absent from<br />
school for a period of at least four weeks because of a temporary medical<br />
disability.<br />
Your doctor must provide the information in writing about the<br />
disability and give his diagnosis and prognosis regarding the amount of<br />
time your child is expected to be absent. This statement should be taken<br />
to the school doctor so that he can ask questions and determine the<br />
advisability of Home Instruction. Your doctor supplies the information<br />
but we must have the school doctor's recommendation before granting<br />
Home Instruction.<br />
Home Instruction is limited to one hour a day or 5 hours per week<br />
for elementary students. Secondary students will receive a minimum of<br />
2 hours a day or a total of 10 hours a week of Home Instruction.<br />
Home Instruction is generally not provided after May 15.<br />

in advance. The various meetings also afford parents and teachers an<br />
opportunity to meet informally.<br />
There is an annual Back-to-<strong>School</strong> Night at each of the schools in<br />

Students in grades 9 through 11 may not leave the campus. Eligible seniors may leave the campus for lunch only with written<br />
parental permission, and must return in time for their next class period. Eligibility shall encompass academics, behavior, and community service<br />
during junior and senior years. Students who are scheduled for study hall are not permitted to leave the building during study hall. There are<br />
no free periods. Eligible seniors may also leave for the purpose of dismissal, if they have no classes during Period 9.<br />
REPORT OF PROGRESS<br />
In order to keep parents informed of a pupil's progress, progress reports are issued each<br />
year in all schools.<br />
In Kindergarten, progress reports are issued four times a year; at the elementary<br />
schools, they are issued four times a year. In addition, elementary school parent/teacher<br />
conferences are held each year.<br />
Four report cards are issued each year in the Middle <strong>School</strong> and the High <strong>School</strong>.<br />
Furthermore, interim reports are also sent home noting unsatisfactory or outstanding work<br />
in specific subjects. Middle <strong>School</strong> and High <strong>School</strong> reports are available on Power<strong>School</strong>.<br />
Students who fail two (2) or more major subjects are not permitted to attend Middle<br />
<strong>School</strong> Commencement.<br />
Only those high school students who meet ALL the requirements by June will be<br />
allowed to participate in the graduation ceremony.<br />
Parents are urged to contact the school for consultation if for any reason they do not<br />
feel a student is succeeding, or if any questions arise about the caliber of a student's work<br />
or status.<br />
GUIDANCE AND COUNSELING<br />
All of our schools have assigned psychologists and social workers for the benefit of<br />
our students. In addition, guidance services are regarded as an integral part of the<br />
educational process. Counselors provide educational, vocational and personal-social<br />
guidance. The counselor assists the student as an individual to make appropriate and<br />
satisfying educational choices and adjustments to his/her school environment.<br />
The counselors and psychologists work closely with parents and the school staff and<br />
will assist the student when any personal problem seems to be impeding school progress.<br />
LEAVING HIGH SCHOOL DURING SCHOOL DAY<br />
No student may leave school for any reason without signing out. To do so is a cut for<br />
each period missed. These cuts will not be cleared after the fact even with a note. Students<br />
MUST sign out after parental contact is made with school officials. Cuts will affect<br />
eligibility for extracurricular activities.<br />

USE OF BUILDINGS AND FACILITIES BY ORGANIZATIONS<br />
The procedure for the use of school buildings, fields, and facilities is as follows:<br />
Use of buildings, fields, etc. will be considered in relation to two (2) seasons:<br />
a) Fall-Winter Season - September 1 to March 31<br />
b) Spring-Summer Season - April 1 to August 31<br />
Deadlines for filing applications are:<br />
a) Fall-Winter Season - March 31<br />
b) Spring-Summer Season - December 31<br />
Applications for the Fall-Winter Season of 2012-13 may be filed anytime up to March<br />
31, 2013. The Board of Education will then consider all applications and approve use as<br />
appropriate. Notifications of approval and/or disapproval will be sent to all organizations<br />
prior to June 30, 2013. Applications for the Fall-Winter Season 2012-13 received after<br />
the March 31, 2012 deadline will be approved only when and if facilities are available for<br />
use.<br />
Similarly, applications for the Spring-Summer Season of 2013 may be filed anytime<br />
up to December 31, 2012 deadline date and the District will make appropriate notification<br />
to all organizations prior to January 31, 2013. Again, applications received after the<br />
December 31, 2012 deadline will be approved only when, and if, facilities are available.<br />
Organizations are reminded that groups must provide proper supervision for participants<br />
and visitors so that there is no roaming about the corridors, classrooms, and offices<br />
in the buildings. Premises are to be left in a clean, orderly condition, and any damage to<br />
the buildings from an organization's use will be charged directly to the group.<br />
Please bear in mind that the school functions have priority over all outside<br />
organization activities; in the event of a conflict, an organization may be required to shift<br />
an activity to another evening, or in unavoidable instances, cancel an activity for a period<br />
of time, etc.<br />
Questions regarding building use, dates, etc., should be directed to the school principal.<br />
We realize there may be some overlapping in seasons for certain activities which is<br />
unavoidable; in such cases an organization will be asked to file an additional application.<br />
REGULATIONS OF VEHICULAR TRAFFIC ON SCHOOL GROUNDS<br />
As authorized by Section 1670 of the Vehicle and Traffic Law:<br />
1. The following vehicles, and no others, shall be permitted to be parked on school grounds<br />
or property:<br />
a. Those vehicles which have been registered with the school office, and for which<br />
parking permits have been issued. Such parking permit, once issued, shall<br />
be visibly displayed on the vehicle for which it has been issued (rear left bumper).<br />
b. Those vehicles belonging to bona fide visitors in pursuit of official school<br />
business, school related matters, or other approved use.<br />
2. Between the hours of 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. on days when school is in session:<br />
a. Where specific parking spaces have been assigned to registered vehicles, such<br />
vehicles shall be parked only in such assigned spaces. It shall be unlawful for<br />
any other vehicle to be parked in such assigned spaces.<br />
b. Unregistered vehicles belonging to bona fide visitors in pursuit of official school<br />
business or school related matters, or registered vehicles when at locations<br />
removed from assigned parking spaces or to which no spaces have been assigned,<br />
shall be parked only in spaces designed for "visitors" parking, or in unassigned<br />
or unmarked spaces.<br />
3. Parking in areas designated as "No Parking" or "Fire Lanes" is prohibited.<br />
4. No vehicle shall be driven at a speed in excess of 10 miles per hour on any school<br />
ground or property.<br />
Any violation of these regulations is a traffic infraction, as provided in the New<br />
York State Vehicle and Traffic Law, and the provisions of such regulations may be enforced<br />
by the Nassau County Police Department.<br />
HIGH SCHOOL PARKING REGULATIONS<br />
Permission to drive and park on campus is reserved for twelfth graders who are in possession<br />
of a senior (D) license, vehicle registration, a current insurance card and who have<br />
been issued a West Hempstead High <strong>School</strong> student's parking sticker ($10.00 deposit<br />
required). Students requesting a sticker must report to Room 109 in the High <strong>School</strong> with<br />
license, vehicle registration and insurance card. If the vehicle is sold during the year, it is<br />
requested that the sticker be removed and returned even if it is damaged. We will then issue<br />
a second sticker. No student is permitted to park on campus without a parking sticker.<br />
Seniors may park only in areas designated for student parking, not in the staff<br />
parking area. Juniors are not permitted to park on campus.<br />
Seniors must drive safely in the parking lot. They may not leave the campus in<br />
their cars during the school day and may not transport underclassmen in their vehicles<br />
in violation of the closed campus policy. Seniors may not sit in cars, nor should any<br />
underclassmen, subject to closed campus, be in any senior's car during the school day.<br />
Failure to follow rules may result in loss of parking privileges.<br />
At no time may students park in the Middle <strong>School</strong> parking lot.<br />
