Sleepy Hollow HS is proud to have been named a Breakthrough Schools semi-finalist. We are one of six high schools in the nation that are being visited by program analysts from the National Association of Secondary School Principals to determine who will be selected as this year's winner. NASSP has promoted meaningful school reform through its Breaking Ranks program for well over a decade. We used Breaking Ranks II as a platform for refining our emphasis on personalization and guiding our long range planning.
