    It is with great enthusiasm that I write to you as the new Superintendent of the Hasbrouck Heights School District! I am honored to join an amazing community that is so deeply grounded in its values and commitment to the education of our children.

    Prior to my arrival in Hasbrouck Heights, I was fortunate enough to have attained a wide range of experience. My prior roles include the following: Assistant Superintendent of Schools, Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Evaluation, Elementary School Principal, High School Assistant Principal/ Director of Athletics, and Middle School Assistant Principal. My building-based experience, paired with my current working knowledge of central office procedures, has allowed me to develop a deep understanding of best instructional practices, professional development, personnel and fiscal management, educational innovations, facility maintenance and upgrades, and building a sound technological infrastructure.

    The Board of Education and I are firmly committed to providing all of our students with an exceptional educational experience. Our goal is to maximize the opportunities provided to our various learners by providing a safe and secure educational environment, addressing student and staff SEL needs, and implementing various post-secondary opportunities through local universities, trade schools, and local businesses. Additionally, we look forward to bolstering district and municipality relations to further enhance community offerings to various groups of constituents.

    Information regarding events to introduce myself to the community, “Talks with Torrento,” will be provided in the near future. Please continue to check the district website (www.hhschools.org) for updated information.

    Wishing every Aviator a restful and fun summer! 

    Dr. Torrento, Superintendent of Schools
