Secaucus School District to partner with Columbia University’s Teacher College

Beginning in the 2019-2020 school year, the Secaucus School District will partner with Teachers College, Columbia University, to offer our K-2 students the Teachers College Writing Program. Both Huber Street and Clarendon Schools were accepted as “partner schools” with the program, receiving priority professional development opportunities for our teachers throughout the school year. Administrators from our district will participate in the highly renowned week-long summer institutes to become familiar with the program and learn how to assess teacher implementation. All K-2 teachers in the district will be utilizing the Units of Study in writing as part of a comprehensive writing curriculum updated this summer by specialists in the district.
