These days, if you cannot get to the parade, the parade will come to you!
That is exactly what happened on Tuesday, May 12, when teachers and staff from the Elmsford Union Free School District hosted a Staff Car Parade. The event was planned to enable teachers to share a “hello” with their students and let them know that they miss them in a safe manner - all while having some fun.

Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Marc Baiocco, hosted an online Coffee and Conversation session. Participants emailed questions in ahead of time covering topics such as how the remainder of the school year will go, meeting the social/emotional needs of students and more.


School districts throughout the state of New York had to contend with closing schools and transitioning to distance learning. Superintendent Dr. Marc Baiocco discussed how the EUFSD managed the change.

Making the Grade
The district came together to decide how best to grade students following the transition to distance learning.

As distance learning has continued, teachers and staff have found ways to stay connected and share messages of encouragement.

One afternoon, a group of eighth-grade girls gathered in a classroom. The group of young women are known as the Alexander Hamilton Codettes. Working with Instructional Technology teacher Hector Hernandez, they meet once a week to learn to code. The group is working on a special project in which they will create an app.

Knowledge is power, and students at Alexander Hamilton High School received a lesson on their civil rights and how to behave in certain situations to ensure their rights are protected. Lucía Hermo, deputy director of the Hudson Valley New York Civil Liberties Union, presented two 45-minute sessions, one for seventh through ninth-graders, and another for upperclassmen at AHHS.

It was a morning of music, poetry, dance and remembrance during a special ceremony celebrating Black History Month at Alexander Hamilton High School on February 14.
