A Message From the Principal

Greetings! Hard to believe but summer is upon us, and the 2008-2009 school year is coming to an end! Reflecting back upon this academic year, I would like to thank everyone - the staff, students, and parents who helped make this year an exciting and successful year at Cedar Place School.

As a result of the collective effort of parents, teachers, administration, staff and greater community working successfully together, our students had a productive and rewarding school year.

To all the parents who have volunteered their time to actively assist with school-wide activities and functions, thank you for your time and dedication to the Cedar Place School Community.

On behalf of the Cedar Place School family, have a safe, restful and enjoyable summer vacation.

Please continue to read with your children throughout the summer vacation.

Mrs. Magdaline Delany - Principal

Mission Statement

The mission of the Cedar Place Elementary School is to provide an educational environment which supports the growth and development of each child, and helps them to attain their fullest potential as a member of a learning community. Our goals include helping students to realize the importance of learning and education. Students will develop the skills necessary to be competent, caring, and responsible members of society. Students will display strong moral character, high self-esteem and the self motivation necessary to achieve high levels of academic success with the ability to meet the challenges of the future. In addition, this mission is best accomplished through the celebration of achievement in all areas of childhood development. With teachers as facilitators, all members of the learning community (including parents, teachers, and students) will set clear expectations which will empower students to reach their full potential.

YonkersReads!

From grades Kindergarten to Third, Cedar Place students will be participating in the enhanced Parent/Child Bookbag Program supported by Yonkers Partners in Education (YPIE), YonkersReads!

Coming soon each class will be receiving a box with about twenty-five books along with a take home packet. In the packets there will be a reading tip sheet for parents, written in both English and Spanish.

Our hope is that these books will encourage parents to read with and/or to their children in order to enhance their reading and promote the love of books. Even if it's just as little as 15 minutes a night, it DOES make a difference.

We are all looking forward to receiving these boxes of goodies and in yet another way pass the joy of reading onto our parents and students.
