C.V. Starr Media Center

(AKA: Brewster Education Foundation Library Media Center)

The Foundation is especially proud of the high technology Media Center located at the CV Starr Intermediate School which is helping to bring our children into the future through hands-on experience. Mike Jumper, former principal, proposed the development of the media center in 1998 and was granted $25,000 to accomplish this goal. The library houses a server allowing students access to information and books from 9 work stations. The server also connects through networks to the school's classrooms.

Financial Aid Counseling

Each year, the Foundation provides funds to make available a financial aid counselor to parents of college bound seniors.

50 Year Graduate Reception

The Foundation established a program of recognition for 50-year graduates of Brewster High School. Graduates are invited to the high school commencement and a reception is later given in their honor.

Scholars Program

At its beginning, the Foundation instituted a Scholars Dinner, to recognize the academic achievement of our H. H. Wells Middle School students. The program is now the Seven Year Scholars award. At High School graduation, an award is given to students who achieved high honor roll every quarter throughout all seven years of middle and high school.

Workshops

The Foundation has funded poetry workshops, author workshops, and training workshops for peer helpers.
