HURLEYVILLE GETS A HIGH SCHOOL
Homestead School, SUNY Sullivan, TCFD Team Up
HURLEYVILLE—The Homestead School, a private Montessori school focused on humanitarian and sustainable education serving 200-plus students in Glen Spey since 1978, announced in December that it would be expanding into Hurleyville.
According to the school’s website, “Homestead will start a full Junior High program next school year, September 2021, that will include grades 7-9. In September of 2022, Homestead will launch the Senior High program with the addition of 10th grade, adding a grade each subsequent year.”
The new school, called the Collaborative College High School will be conducted in partnership with SUNY Sullivan and The Center for Discovery. It will be headquartered in TCFD’s Technology Hub and Incubator (THINC) on Main Street.
“This is quite possibly the first pre-K through Associate’s Degree Montessori experience available on the planet!” Jack Comstock, the school’s Director, wrote on the Homestead’s website.
We will have more on this exciting new development in the February edition of The Hurleyville Sentinel.
