As Gossips has already reported, the Hudson City School District Board of Education has initiated the process of searching for a new superintendent. In the meantime, a reader sent the link to tables that show the percentage of students in Grades 3 through 8 in New York who scored proficient on statewide assessment tests in the 2024-2025 school year. The tests are administered in math and in ELA (English language arts--reading and writing). In the tables, school districts are listed in descending order, from highest scoring to lowest scoring. - The table for math is thirty-six pages long, and you have to click through to page 35 to find HCSD. Of the 608 students who took the test, only 25 percent scored proficient in math.
- The table for ELA is forty-four pages long, and the results for HCSD appear on page 41. Of the 621 students who took the test, 31 percent scored proficient in ELA--reading and writing.
You can explore the tables for yourself by clicking here.COPYRIGHT 2026 CAROLE OSTERINK
While it’s hard to conceive of such epic failure being “bested” by even worse districts than HCSD, I’m interested in when the state might determine that HCSD is failing per the statutes.
