Fifth-grade students at Buchanan-Verplanck Elementary School recently had the opportunity to apply for a job — in this case, as a school B-V SOAR ambassador.
Board of Education Meeting, September 18
Tonight's Board of Education meeting has been postponed until next Wednesday, September 18
Students in the Hendrick Hudson School District’s three elementary schools participated in a variety of activities designed to commemorate September 11.
Hen Hud students showed up for the first day of schools with big smiles on their faces and were greeted by their teachers as they kicked off the new school year.
News 12 covered Hen Hud’s use of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) for students who are struggling mentally or emotionally. In the segment, school social worker Megan Brenner describes how DBT helps students manage their emotions, control stress and improve interpersonal skills.
The first day of school is right around the corner, and Supervisor of Transportation Liz Gilleo, School Resource Officer Ed Ramirez and Sergeant Shane Farell of the Buchanan Police Department could be seen around town, hanging up posters reminding everyone to drive safely and obey all rules of the road around school buses. “We want drivers to be aware that children will soon be walking to and from bus stops, waiting at bus stops, or walking to and from their schools,” said Gilleo. “We want everyone to be safe as we begin the 2019-20 school year.”
Teachers who have joined the Hendrick Hudson School District this school year recently spent two days at a new teacher orientation. The annual orientation allows new staff to get to know one another, meet key district staff, learn about the district as a whole, and familiarize themselves with all things Hen Hud!
