Clarkstown's New School Superintendent Blogs His Way to Opening Day

NEW CITY, NY — Clarkstown's new schools chief, Martin Cox, has been keeping the community updated on everything the district's been doing to get ready for the 2016-17 school year with the Superintendent's Blog.

From his first post July 6, when he talked about the tours he was getting from school principals, to his latest post, about Clarkstown South's freshman orientation, he's been sharing details about the life of the district.

And he's been offering information and resources for everyone in the community about school issues, for example:

Catlin Tucker is a teacher, international trainer and author who strongly believes in the importance of using those first days in the classroom to get to know students. Her article in Educational Leadership magazine, available via the link below, entitled Don't Waste the First Week, emphasizes the importance to pique the curiosity of students while learning about their passions during the beginning days of school.
