Happy Substitute Educators Day
HCS appreciates its hardworking substitute educators!

SRP Recognition Day
SRP Recognition Day is Nov. 18, 2025, in New York State. It is a well-deserved honor for the hard-working women and men who help educate, feed and transport students, monitor their health, administer school offices, and maintain school facilities — providing a safe and nurturing environment for student-centered learning. Thank you to all our SRPs!

Save the Date!
