Dear Parents,
I am delighted to invite you to explore HudsonWay Immersion School. In my second year as the Head of School, I have been impressed by the level of Mandarin and Spanish our students achieve. Our older students have qualified for the Global Seal of Biliteracy and taken AP exams in their target language. This is a remarkable achievement. However, HWIS is much more than an immersion school. We aim to provide the best research-based education and socio-emotional experience for your family. HWIS is not only a school, we are a closely-knit school community united by our belief in a multilingual, multicultural, balanced, and multi-layered education for our children. This community includes parents, students, teachers, staff, and the greater community outside the walls of HWIS.
Once again, I thank you for considering HudsonWay. If you have any questions, thoughts, concerns, or ideas, please don’t hesitate to call, email, or drop by.
Warm regards,
Nelyda Miguel
Head of School
