Math Night Brings the Hendrick Hudson Community Together

The turnout for Math Night on Monday, Nov. 10 at Frank G. Lindsey Elementary School was outstanding, with 185 students from all three elementary schools joining in the fun! The event showcased that math can be exciting, engaging, and full of discovery.

A special shoutout goes to Mr. Wallace’s fifth grade class, whose students designed and built their own math-themed game boards. The students also helped run that station during the event, proudly sharing their creative games with attendees.

The Hen Hud Elementary PTA added to the excitement by organizing a raffle featuring math-themed prizes, while SEPTA created a calm corner that provided students with a peaceful space to take a break.

The Hendrick Hudson Community Educational Foundation provided a generous grant to support the event and was responsible for ordering supplies for the evening.

“I was so happy to hear that Math Night was returning to Hen Hud, and that HHCEF was able to provide a grant to help make it possible,” said Antoniette Pio, the HHCEF’s president. “I remember going with my older two boys many years ago. It was so much fun seeing all the students and families working together to solve a problem and moving from station to station.”

In addition to our amazing elementary staff, student volunteers from the middle school and high school played a vital role in making the evening a success.

“It was inspiring to see our younger students looking up to the leadership and enthusiasm of their older peers,” said Michelle Karwowski, the district’s Elementary Instructional Math Coach. “Thank you to everyone who helped make this year’s Math Night such a meaningful and memorable community event!”
