Oblivion News: (1383 words)
On prom night, June 12, Scarsdale High School seniors — in slinky strapless gowns and uncomfortable bow ties and cummerbunds — will have to be dropped off at school by their parents, attend a pre-prom party organized by the PTA and then climb aboard buses along with faculty chaperons.
These new restrictions are part of a broader effort at Scarsdale High School to control the binge drinking that some say is rampant in the suburbs and has led to death and injury, as well as embarrassing excess at schools throughout Westchester County in the academic year just drawing to a close.
Schools in Scarsdale, Rye, Valhalla and other Westchester towns also tweaked prom night rituals in other ways, like holding pre-prom parties on school grounds to discourage drunken house parties, and requiring each student to be dropped off and picked up at school by a parent.
Why I Was Mugged in Scarsdale, Again (923 words)
Scarsdale High has virtually no low-income students and an SAT average in the mid-1200s.
Scarsdale administrators told motivated students that they could not take AP courses because they weren't good enough for them, even though much less qualified students at Garfield were encouraged to take the same courses and the identical final exams.
At the same time the Scarsdale Middle School is giving more students a chance to complete first year algebra so they can take AP calculus before they finish high school.
