Welcome to the Otsego Northern Catskills BOCES website. In a region such as ours, which sprawls over 1660 square miles of sparsely populated, rugged terrain, technology provides the vital link that connects us to one another and to the resources that we need to assure maximum learning opportunities for those we serve. The ONC BOCES website is designed as a portal to timely information for our component school districts and the community at large. Visitors to our sight can also link to other key educational sites to locate educational news, information and resources.
Our component districts depend on ONC BOCES to help them meet their educational and financial goals. We do this by striving to meet our own organizational goals which are to:
- Provide high quality instructional programs that will prepare all students to be responsible, productive, and informed contributors to their community;
- Provide effective leadership and support to assist districts in meeting the needs of all students;
- Develop and enhance partnerships to provide high quality, cost effective, collaborative services; and
- Develop and enhance communications within the ONC BOCES and the region.
In times like these when financial resources are scare and getting scarcer, ONC BOCES is an agency that makes it possible for component districts to pool their resources to purchase a wide variety of programs and services. In so doing, we can maximize the return on the investment for all of our region’s taxpayers. Our students are the real winners!
So, we are pleased to welcome you to our website, a place where you will find countless pathways to expand learning opportunities in a cost effective, convenient way! Our site is frequently updated! Visit us again soon!
