Despite confusing messages over the last few days, nothing is changing with mask rules in school.
The governor said in a press conference today that he plans to give schools the choice whether to require masks outside but, as with all of the previous COVID changes, we have to wait for further information and actual guidelines to come from the state before altering our local rules.
For now, all FEH BOCES students and staff should continue to wear a mask in school and outside on school grounds until we receive updated written guidance.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we await further guidance on this matter.

Self-care Saturday tip for stressful times: Manage your information flow. Give yourself a break from constantly checking the news or social media feeds. Choose a couple of reputable sources such as state and local authorities, Centers for Disease Control, or World Health Organization and commit to check in no more than two or three times a day for updates.

Wellness Wednesday tip for stressful times: Virtually reach out to different types of support networks, such as family, friends, colleagues, faith-based communities, and social organizations to strengthen your overall feeling of connection. Find meaningful tasks to channel your anxiety, such as coordinating deliveries of groceries to those unable to leave home or calling people who might feel socially isolated. Supporting others is beneficial to the supporter as well.

Our New Vision programs offer career exploration in a variety of fields. The Government and Law class recently visited the NY State Capitol as part of their studies. While being introduced to the workings of the state senate by our Senator Betty Little, they had a chance to meet a former student, Nicholas Haas, Jr., Class of 2012.
Since completing our program, Nick earned an undergraduate degree at Sage College in Albany. As part of his college program he interned at the State Capitol. Now he works for New York Senator Michael Ranzenhofer. A recent meeting he attended discussed BOCES funding. Nick shared his positive experiences at Franklin-Essex-Hamilton BOCES with them. A proud “product of New Vision”, he spoke highly of his program.
FEH-BOCES and New Vision celebrate the successes of our alumni!
