Legal Notices
No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB)
Parental notifications
Pursuant to the federal No Child
Left Behind Act, parents may request information regarding the
professional qualifications of their child’s
classroom teachers and teaching assistants
including:
Whether state requirements and
licensing criteria have been met for
the grade level and subject area being
taught.
If the teacher is working under
emergency or other provisional status
under which state qualification and
licensing criteria have been waived.
The teacher’s college major and
subsequent advanced degrees.
Qualifications of any teaching
assistants providing services to your
child.
If an uncertified teacher will be
working in a classroom for four or
more weeks.
Requests for the above information
may be directed to Lonnie Palmer, School
Superintendent, BKW Central School
District, 1738 Helderberg Trail, Berne,
NY 12023.
S C H O O L
Release of information
to military recruiters
NCLB requires that school districts
disclose to military recruiters and institutions of higher learning, upon request, the
names, addresses and telephone numbers
of our high school students.
However, parents or students may
request, in writing, that the district NOT
release such information. Parents, or
students who are at least 18 years old,
may exercise the option to withhold their
consent to release this information by
contacting the high school principal’s
office.
2015-2016 CALENDAR BERNE-KNOX-WESTERLO
D I S T R I C T
Student Privacy
The district’s privacy policy offers parents the opportunity to excuse their child
from any survey that reveals information
on personal behavior or political beliefs.
Parents are also notified and offered
the chance to exclude their child from
activities that gather personal information
about students which can be used for
marketing purposes.
Special needs
Under the Family Educational Rights and
Privacy Act (FERPA), parents and students
over 18 years of age have the right to
inspect and review the student‘s records
or request an amendment of records
believed to be incorrect. They can also
withhold consent on disclosure of personally identifiable information, except in
cases where the law allows for disclosure
without consent.
Children with special needs may be
entitled to additional services from the
school district in which they reside. If
your child has special needs and is not
known to the school administration,
please call the District Office.
New York State Education Law also
requires that each public school district
account for the education of all resident
minors. Please help BKW comply with
this requirement. If your child is homeschooled or attends a private or parochial
school and has not previously been
registered with the District Office, please
call 872-1293.
Student Directory information
Asbestos Management Plan
Access to student records
The district releases certain types of
student information (name, address,
phone number, photo, etc.). Under FERPA,
parents may request in writing to not
release that information.
In accordance with federal law, the
Berne-Knox-Westerlo Central School
District has in place a management plan
to identify and manage asbestos building
materials.
The Asbestos Management Plan is on
file and available for review in the District
Office during regular business hours.
Pesticide notification
It is mandatory for school districts to
inform parents or guardians and staff
members of potential pesticide use during
the school year.
To be placed on a list to receive 48-hour
notification prior to the application of
pesticides, please call the District Office.
Student Health Data
Because New York State is interested in
child health data, schools are required
to record students’ height, weight and
Body Mass Index (BMI). If our district is
surveyed by the state, we will only share
group data (for instance, the number of
second grade boys whose BMI is below
the fifth percentile), not individual data.
However, if parents wish their child’s data
to be excluded from such group calculations, they may do so by contacting their
school nurse.
APPR Ratings
All parents/guardians will have the right
to obtain APPR ratings and composite effectiveness scores for their child’s teacher(s)
and principal(s) once the scores are
available in accordance with state law. For
additional details, please visit the district
website or contact your child’s school.

Summer
Reading
Summer is the
perfect time for
children to engage
in leisure reading.
BKW students
should continue
their education on
their own by reading
as many books as
possible during the
summer.
Students in grades
6-12 are required
to read at least two
assigned books,
but they should try
to read more for
enjoyment.
