Promotion gets three cheers from former colleague
Craig Zeno
This week’s Shout Out goes to Craig Zeno, an at-risk administrator at Westbury and Washington high schools, on his recent promotion.
“For seven years, Mr. Zeno has worked tirelessly for the success of students,” said Victoria Syes, a former colleague from Yates High School who teaches journalism. “He’s worn several hats—all of which affect student success—and his personal mission is to give students hope that anything is possible with a solid educational foundation.”
“Mr. Zeno is best known for his ‘out of the box’ approaches to preventing students from dropping out of school,” added Syes. “Over the last two years, he has helped Yates increase its graduation rate to 86.9 percent, decrease its dropout rate to 8.8 percent, and increase its attendance rate to 93.4 percent, beating out all other schools with similar demographics.”
