Mahaffey. New Rochelle’s longstanding dominance in basketball and football is complemented by evolving offerings that ensure inclusivity and participation across genders. SAFETY AND INFRASTRUCTURE INVESTMENTS Student and staff safety is a keystone of New Rochelle’s current infrastructure projects.The district is in the second phase of its “hardening of schools” initiative, which includes the installation of dual vestibule entryways and security booths across all schools. “Safety isn’t just about preventing incidents; it’s also about the perception of safety,” says Dr. Reynolds.“We want our community to feel secure in every building we manage.” Additional projects include a multi-year renovation of the district’s pool facility, damaged by Hurricane Ida. Rather than opt for a quick fix, the district is taking a comprehensive approach to address underlying drainage issues in collaboration with city agencies. EMPOWERING EDUCATORS THROUGH LEARNING Professional development is treated with the same strategic importance as student learning. New Rochelle’s Teacher Center serves as a regional hub for professional education, complemented by partnerships with Southern Westchester and Putnam/Northern Westchester Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES). “Teachers can pursue compliance-related and interest-driven learning,” Dr. Reynolds explains. A proud partner and supporter of the City School District of New Rochelle.
