Welcome to the Lower Hudson Council of School Superintendents

 

Regular Meeting May 9 2:30pm

Our last meeting of the year is most important. First we will hear a report on the findings of the Regional Poll that was recently completed. Then we will hear the latest information on APPR and publicizing teacher and administrator evaluations. Next we will be voting on next year's officers, budget and calendar. The meeting ends when we "Roast and Toast" our retirees. Please remember the meeting will start at 2:30 at the Doubletree and then immediately following will be the Council's scholarship fundraising reception featuring the UNFUNDED MANDATES.
