Rotary this Friday


Last week Dr. Jim Kaishian, Briarcliff Manors Superintendent of Schools, was our guest speaker. He shared in great detail future plans and developments for Briarcliff schools and students, which is quite exciting. The way many of us learned is changing from sitting at our desks to a more open classroom concept with small group interaction. Also technology is helping advance the learning process. Jim mentioned that all High School and I believe middle school students are given a laptop MacBook Pros to use in the classroom and take home as well. He also talked about how they are dealing with security issues at the schools. These were but a few of the many things Jim talked about.

This week our guest speaker is Andrew Kabatchnick. Andrew is a local CPA that has been in this business for over 10 years.  The main focus of his talk will be on taxes, accounting, and financial health for his clients.  He would also like to discuss with us the new tax law and tax planning.

Just a friendly reminder to get out and sell ads for our Journal. Our goal is 5 ads per member. This is so easy to do, just ask those you do business with and you will be surprised when most say yes.

Hope to see all of you tomorrow.
