  • A.O.F. to be Presented to Staff at February Meeting - Questions Invited.

    Posted by Debra Dearborn at 1/17/2012 12:15:00 AM

    The Academy of Finance (AOF) at BCS is taking shape and we are on track to successfully complete the Year of Planning (YOP) with the National Academy Foundation (NAF) this spring and subsequently implement instruction starting Fall 2012.

    So what has been happening recently?

    1.     AOF courses have been proposed. 
    Four
    AOF courses are required to get AOF/NAF diploma. 
          Taking additional AOF courses will lead to an Advanced AOF/NAF diploma.
     

    2.     AOF 4-year plan for Non-BOCES and BOCES students has been proposed.

           3.    Recruitment, Application, and Marketing committees are looking at ways to promote AOF at BCS that will maximize the opportunities for our students

    At our February faculty meeting we will present the Academy of Finance at BCS with the most up-to-date information. We would like to address any questions you may have, big or small!    So, please send all questions to Karin Menz by email at kmenz@barkercsd.net or drop your questions in the box labeled “AOF QUESTIONS?” found near the Junior High and Senior High school copiers.  To submit your question on-line, just click the new link we have provided to the right.  From those questions a list of FAQ’s will be addressed at the faculty meeting and posted on the BCS website.

  • Academy Taking Shape

    Posted by Debra Dearborn at 11/18/2011 12:35:00 AM
    The Academy of Finance (AOF) at Barker Central School has been quickly taking shape with the help of the National Academy Foundation (NAF) personnel.  NAF is mentoring and preparing our school through their Year of Planning (YOP) program with benchmark requirements along the way.  Our goal is to successfully complete the YOP and role out the 1st course in September of 2012.
     
    So what has been happening recently?
     
    1.  An Advisory Board has been created to oversee and ensure the goals of the AOF are being met. 
     
    2.  Development of communications strategies:
           a. Student created brochure for 8th grade parents
           b. Presentations to 8th grade class about AOF
           c. Staff updates via email/faculty meetings
     
    3.  Potential AOF courses have been discussed and will hopefully be solidified upon an upcoming visit from the NAF curriculum specialist.
     
    4.  Classroom presentations by some business partners. 
     
    5.  Much data has been submitted regarding our current courses, schedules, class sizes, etc.
