West Hempstead Union Free School District

Congratulations to all of our @wh_secondary musicians who were selected to participate in the Nassau Music Educators Association’s All-County ensembles and the the Long Island String Festival Association’s festivals! #RamCulture

Welcome to the #RamFam, Dr. Minicozzi! It appears you are fitting in already. @WHChestnut #RamCulture

Dear West Hempstead School Community, At yesterday evening's Board of Education meeting, the Board accepted Faith Tripp's resignation as Chestnut Street School's principal. We thank Ms. Tripp for her years of service to our district's students. I know you will join me in wishing Ms. Tripp well in her new endeavor. The Board of Education has appointed Dr. Lisa Minicozzi as an interim principal, who will begin with the district tomorrow. She is a former K-12 school teacher and K-5 principal. Dr. Minicozzi joins our district with a wealth of educational experience and has served in various roles throughout her career. Most recently, she has served as the Clinical Associate Professor of Early Childhood Education and Program Director for Educational Leadership in the College of Education & Health Studies at Adelphi University. We welcome Dr. Minicozzi to our great district and look forward to the contributions she will add to our RamCulture! Sincerely, Daniel Rehman Superintendent of Schools

Whole group, small group, pairs, or individually, students @CornwellAveES are building their foundational skills and producing “mental sweat.” #RamCulture

So many wonderful learning opportunities being led by our staff. No wonder our students are smiling ear to ear! #RamCulture @WHGWashington

The images do not capture the great work and mental sweat these wonderful students produced. A fabulous writing celebration in @Ms_Elezi class. @wh_secondary #RamCulture

This past Wednesday, the band and cheerleading were invited to Hofstra to demonstrate their excellence and raise funds for their respective programs. They both made wonderful impressions. So much so that the band has been asked to return to Hofstra next Thursday to play with the Hofstra band in a nationally televised game! This is just another shining example of our #RamCulture and #RamPride.

Our annual STEMposium takes place tonight beginning at 7 pm. Come join us! @wh_secondary @whufsdD #RamCulture

Halftime action! Way to go peeps! #RamCulture
