The first week of school has come and gone. As you are all already aware I am in my second year as an Academy Director (Vice-Principal) at Charlotte High School in Rochester, New York. Our school last year was labeled as persistently dangerous due to the suspension and incident rates of 2005-06. During my first year our school principal and administrative team put many things in place and well, it paid off. We are now off the list that gave us a negative perception by our community members and students.
On our opening day we were welcomed with a visit from Interim Superintendent Dr. William Cala, who was going to visit all 60 schools during the first two days of school. Along with the Superintendent's visit came the media, in particular Channel 10 NBC News was there to report on us getting removed from the list.
I was glad to see them there to report on all of our hard work. All of the things that our teachers, students and administrators have been doing to make Charlotte High School a world class institution of learning.
Here is the video and article of that morning. Click Here
Now that we are off the list and back to a fresh start our focus still remains on continuing a a safe learning environment and improving our instructional offerings. With time I am confident that Charlotte High School will move up and be known as an elite high school in the Rochester area.
