FRHSD Administrators Present at 2016 CollegeBoard Regional Forum
Freehold Regional High School District (FRHSD) administrators recently presented at the 2016 CollegeBoard Regional Forum in Baltimore.
Superintendent Charles Sampson, Chief Academic Officer Dr. Nicole Hazel, Director of Curriculum & Instruction Dr. Jeffrey Moore and Director of Guidance & Operations Shanna Howell took part in a discussion regarding increasing student access to rigorous courses. The group spoke alongside colleagues from Bergenfield High School about how the district has increased the percentage of students taking AP courses over the past several years. As a part of empowering its students, FRHSD has revised academic programs to maximize acceleration into AP courses, and in addition implemented summer programs to prepare students for the rigors of AP.
Mr. Sampson also took part in a separate panel discussion on how FRHSD is utilizing tools like the redesigned SAT and PSAT/NMSQT to evaluate a student’s college readiness and determine which advanced courses are a good match without heightening student stress.
“Working collaboratively with other districts is a vital asset in advancing a district’s program. The giving and sharing of ideas provides an opportunity to see what works and how things can improve. It was an honor to have our administrators invited to speak about the advances we have made here in the Freehold Regional,” Mr. Sampson said.
