CSH Collegial Circles: Learning Across Long Island

Grant Amount: $6,000
Date In Effect: 2026
Schools Impacted: Goosehill Primary, WS Elementary, LH Elementary, Jr./ Sr. High School

Building on the success of previous AP Collegial Circles, which brought together 129 educators from 43 Long Island school districts, this grant will fund two collaborative, two-day professional learning sessions during the 2026–2027 school year.

The winter session will focus on Advanced Placement and Regents instruction, helping teachers strengthen classroom strategies, assessment practices, and student preparation.

A new spring session will expand the program to guidance and college counseling, as well as integrated co-teaching. Educators will collaborate on student support, college and career readiness, inclusive instruction, and strategies for meeting diverse learning needs.

Through ongoing resource sharing and professional collaboration, the program aims to strengthen teaching practices and student experiences throughout the district.
