Lindenhurst Technology Director Earns Prestigious Innovation Award

The Lindenhurst Union Free School District is proud to announce that Jennifer Freedman, Director of Instructional Technology and Innovation, was awarded the prestigious Podolski Visionary Award at the annual Long Island Technology and Education Summit (LITES.)

The award, presented by the three Long Island BOCES agencies, is their highest technology honor. It is named in memory of Fred Podolski, the longtime Director of the Nassau BOCES Department of Curriculum, Instruction and Technology.

The Podolski Award is given to an educational administrator who has demonstrated exceptional vision, leadership, and support for technology initiatives. The recipient must have a proven record of driving technology use, the ability to identify future needs, and a passion for serving the educational needs of students and teachers.

“Ms. Freedman most certainly exemplifies those characteristics and is a well-deserving award winner,” said Superintendent of Schools Vincent A. Caravana. “All of us in the Lindenhurst School District congratulate her on this tremendous achievement and thank her for her continued dedication to our school community.”
