Welcome

Welcome to the www.boces.org, the Web site representing all 37 Boards of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) in New York State. School districts statewide depend on BOCES to meet their educational and financial goals. The BOCES model provides accountability, municipal sharing, efficiency and equity.

With BOCES as a catalyst, school districts develop shared programs that serve children from all districts regardless of enrollment, income or size of tax base. By focusing on collaboration and cost containment, BOCES help to relieve some of the financial burdens increasingly placed on local taxpayers. The stream of shared services aid has enabled districts to avoid at least some of the growth in property taxes that would have otherwise been required.

The pages within this Web site will provide you with the history, mission, facts and statistics, access to the various BOCES offices across the state and more!

Published: Mon, 16 Nov 2009 06:00:00 GMT
In Albany today the New York State Board of Regents took the first in a series of steps to strengthen the preparation and practice of teaching with a specific emphasis on providing high need schools with the best teaching faculty possible. The Regents are authorizing the development of a performance-based approach to teacher certification and inviting - on a trial basis - new entities to prepare teachers for certification. As part of this new approach, the Regents will support the development of new performance-based assessments for teacher certification (including the eventual use of value-added assessment as a component of professional certification), will develop new methods to recruit and retain teachers for high needs schools in subject shortage areas and will allow additional content knowledge demonstrations for prospective teachers to bring new talent into the teaching field.
