It is an incredible honor and privilege to serve as the next Superintendent of Schools for the Hyde Park Central School District.  I truly appreciate the warm welcome and support I have received.  Thank you for sharing with me your points of pride about Hyde Park Schools.  

I am looking forward to beginning our work together with our dedicated Board of Education, students, administrators, faculty, staff, families, and community to build on the excellent work and success that has been accomplished under the leadership of Superintendent Aviva Kafka. 

In the coming weeks, I will share with the Board of Education and community my Listening and Learning Plan and timeline as I plan to meet with various stakeholders to understand what are the aspirations, strengths, and opportunities for our District.  In this process, I will gain a better understanding of our school system from different points of view.  With this information, I will share a review of trends along with a final report and presentation.   

As your next Superintendent, I am committed to collaborating, being visible, actively listening, and acting with integrity and support in service of our students.  Most importantly, I commit to ensuring that all students succeed and thrive in our schools no matter who they are, where they live, what school they attend, or where they come from.  

In advance, thank you for your time and partnership as we aim to create greater access and opportunities for each and every student to reach their limitless potential!

With Hyde Park Pride, 

Dr. Pedro Roman
