Letter from the Superintendent: Update on Princeton Plan Implementation Stakeholder Committee and Survey
Dear Hendrick Hudson Families:
In early 2020, The Hendrick Hudson School District began exploring a grade-based reorganization of its elementary students, commonly known as a Princeton Plan approach. A committee comprising school and community stakeholders was formed to study the feasibility of such an approach, however, the Governor’s Executive Order closing schools in March forced us to temporarily put the brakes on the process.
The committee is now ready to resume its efforts and will be meeting next month for the first time. In order to better gauge where the school community stands on this topic, we are asking for your input on a brief survey. Please click HERE to participate.
As explained in numerous communications, no decisions have been made to adopt any recommendation at this point, and if a recommendation is to be implemented, it would not occur until September 2021, at the earliest.
As the process unfolds, we will be scheduling meetings for district families and community members, so that questions can be addressed and next steps can be established.
We will keep you informed via the district website, email communication and social media platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter. As always, if you have any questions, please reach out to me at (914) 257-5112 or joseph.hochreiter@henhudschools.org.
Regards,
Joseph Hochreiter
Superintendent
