ROCKLAND BOCES (Board of Cooperative Educational Services), located in West Nyack, New York, serves as a vital regional provider of educational services designed to support the diverse needs of the eight local school districts within Rockland County. By operating as a collaborative extension of these districts, ROCKLAND BOCES offers specialized programs that are often more cost-effective or expansive than what a single district could provide on its own. Their primary focus includes robust Career and Technical Education (CTE) pathways, intensive special education services, and adult education programs, all aimed at fostering student success, workforce readiness, and lifelong learning.

Beyond classroom instruction, the organization acts as a comprehensive resource hub for the region, offering administrative support, professional development for educators, and cutting-edge instructional technology services. Through its mission to provide high-quality, inclusive programming, ROCKLAND BOCES plays a critical role in bridging the gap between traditional K-12 schooling and post-secondary success. Whether preparing high school students for skilled trades or assisting adult learners in obtaining high school equivalency diplomas, the institution is dedicated to creating equitable pathways for all residents of the Rockland community.
