Welcome to Superintendent Dr. Juliette Pennyman’s bi-weekly update for the community: Pennyman’s Pen!
The 2024-25 School year is here!
It has been a great start to the new school year!
A special thanks goes out to the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity- Albany Chapter and to the Hudson Police Department for ensuring a smooth, fun first day of school at the Jr./Sr. High School.
Football
On September 6, the Hudson Football team won their opening match against Taconic Hills, 18-0, led by two touchdowns from Kameryn Clarke and one by William Schmitt. Go Bluehawks!
Superintendent’s Conference Day
On Tuesday, September 3, 2024, I hosted my Superintendent’s Conference Day. The morning started with my opening speech followed by speeches from Dr. Pressey, DEI Manager, as well as Dr. Kortright-Torres, Executive Director of Teaching and Learning.
We were honored to host Principal Kafele as the event’s anticipated keynote speaker. Principal Kafele is a distinguished and highly respected urban educator, a master teacher, and a transformational school leader.
The Bluehawk Cafe
The Jr./Sr. High Cafeteria has been reimagined, upgraded, and beautifully renewed with attractive amenities.
The cafeteria, now known as the Bluehawk Café, is a bright, welcoming showcase of the Hudson City School District’s motto, #HudsonTogetherWeCan.
