From traditional schools to progressive programs, Chronogram’s coverage of educational opportunities in the Hudson Valley is wide reaching. Feature articles address controversial issues, like technology and meditation in the classroom, as well as interviews with educators and students. Nontraditional educational opportunities in the Hudson Valley, like Waldorf and Montessori schools, are profiled so that parents can make a more informed decision about where their child goes to school.
Since its founding in 1934 by families seeking a different kind of education for their children, Poughkeepsie Day School has been at the forefront of progressive teaching in the Hudson Valley. Last fall, the school reopened its doors with a new mission statement and a renewed drive to grow its community, but with the same goal at its heart: to prepare a new generation of leaders to create a more just world.
