OHS Football lost a Giant, with the passing of long time Asst FB Coach Roger Rowe. Coach Rowe made a huge impact on many of his former players.
Our deepest condolences to his family and all his former players. He will be truly missed.
Boys had a great time with Sergeant Chavez at the @OssiningPolice department. Learning about forensics and knowing they need to be strong! To wear the SWAT gear! Thank you for keeping our community safe!
Brookside loves building community relationships. We are always so happy to see our very own Ossining Police stop in at our STREAM/Library time. @LuciaOrduz13 @OssiningSup @ImDrDrea @OssiningSchools@OssiningPolice @OssiningPDChief
It was great to see Lt. Brendan Donohue, @OssiningPDChief Kevin Sylvester, Det. Jafeth Chavez as we close out #IACP2022. They are all part of the team at @OssiningPolice in New York.
Get yourself a coworker who hands out cold drinks on a hot day… and not just to the cops. She looks after the whole community. Miss Gloria - our guardian angel! #ThisIsOssining
@maureen_meaghan@FSWestchester@westchestergov Yes, they can though most responses will be a co-response. That plan will be evaluated constantly and adjusted as necessary. Ideally they will handle many mental health calls independently but the reality is that our calls are often multi-layered.
