President message for Friday July 20, 2018

Last week we had no official meeting, so nothing to report about that. I was out of town last Friday and not sure if any of you had lunch together at the Briars.

This week our guest speaker is Anne’s daughter Shona Cargill Gualtieri. She was the second Cargill born in the U.S. She attended the Tarrytown schools and graduated from Sleepy Hollow High School.  She received her BA degree in N-8 education from American International College in Springfield Mass. and immediately started teaching the early grades.  She then graduated from Fordham University with her MA and proceeded to become an expert in Pre-Kindergarten Education. She has stayed with this for the past twenty years and has been a Director of Universal Pre-Kindergarten Programs in Queens , the Bronx and now in  Lower Westchester. Her topic is “Assessing Universal Pre-Kindergarten Classes” and “CLASS” which stands for Classroom Assignment Scoring System.

Hope to see all !

Mark J.
