21stCenturySkillsCommitttee

Members of this group are responsible for researching the "21st Century Skills" and articulating the same to constituents across the school community. They will make connections between the learning experiences our students have in school and the requirements of the business world that students will be facing once they complete their education. Group members will also engage in "future studies" with staff and students. Action plans to move Nanuet along the Technology and Learning Spectrum will be developed.

Core Committee Members: Kelli Brady, Kathleen McGuire, Laura Nicholls, Christopher Polizzi
