WEST HEMPSTEAD HONORS TOP 25 STUDENTS FROM THE CLASS OF 2022
We honored the top 25 students in the graduating Class of 2022 on April 27.
The district hosted a celebratory dinner for these students and their families. These top 25 students selected honored educators who have inspired them during their educational careers in grades K-12. Students had the opportunity to thank these educators with speeches that included memorable moments from their years in the district.
In turn, the educators had the opportunity to share their memorable experiences with these graduating seniors.

Read Aloud at Cornwell Avenue
RamPride
This week Jenn Corrado collaborated with Brooke Martins, who offered to teach an interactive read-aloud at Cornwell. Ms. Corrado is always happy to welcome other teachers into her class and believes that learning from colleagues is important. It’s also a way for students to experience literature and content differently from the way she teaches it.
Brooke was outstanding as she led the class in a flawless interactive read-aloud. It is a pleasure to have colleagues share their strengths.
