The Faculty, Staff, and Administrators of the Goshen Central School District, gathered on Friday, February 28th, to have some fun during the school year. DJ Tucci took care of the music and the people on the dance floor got busy.

The food was great and the company was loads of fun.  Thank you to Delancey's for opening your doors to our local schools.  Thank you to the party planners for all of their efforts in making the afternoon a huge success.

FYI, at the BOE meeting on Thurs., March 6, the parent who wrote the recent article in the local paper (regarding H.S. & M.S. Parent- Teacher conferences) asked the BOE to consider making the request for M.S. & H.S. parent teacher conferences a part of negotiations. The BOE's response was that they already had a lengthy list of  requests which they had on the table. The BOE also stated that they would research by asking for data from nearby districts who had such conferences.

We hope to see you on Wednesday, July 16th, 2014 !
