A beautiful Veterans Day ceremony at Evans ES today! Members of our BOE joined staff and other dignitaries to honor those who have served our country. Dr. Bonk, Wappinger Town Supervisor Cavaccini, and Principal Hernandez thanked our veterans for their service and sacrifice. “As we prepare today’s students for tomorrow, an important part of that is learning about the past,” Dr. Bonk said. “One of the reasons we enjoy such freedom in our great country is thanks to those have served, defending that freedom.” Thank you, veterans!

Celebrating our Wappingers Rotary Club Students of the Month!

At their Open House earlier this month, Van Wyck JHS hosted their Second Annual Community Resource Fair, with a wide variety of organizations on hand to provide information and support for families—truly showcases the value of community partnerships!

Today, Fishkill ES Pre-K and Kindergarten students had a special visit from Protection Engine Company #1, in the Village of Fishkill. They learned all about the trucks, and how the firefighters use the tools within them when they respond to an emergency. We are so thankful for their dedicated service to the community!
