What do we do? 

Social media: join if you want to promote HCHS4D and educate our community! You will research, write, and create posts and tweets as well as help continuously update our website.  

​

Community engagement: join to help organize events + initiatives to keep the HCHS community involved! You will help run events, create messaging documents and presentations and email parents, teachers, students and alums. 

​

Press outreach: join to help publicize our fight! You will need to write succinct messaging documents (like press releases) compile information and speak with press.  

​

Elected officials: join to contact and work with NY's elected officials! This will involve attending and speaking at meetings with officials' offices, strategizing, researching and helping organize events. 

Share your experiences!

Share any experiences that you have had at HCHS due to its lack of socioeconomic or racial diversity (or anything else about our school climate, like religion or sexuality!) 

​

Don't worry if you don't want your name to be publicized: the form allows you to chose how much personal info you share 

Email President Raab, Chancellor Matos-RodrÍguez, Dr. Fisher and Ms. Siegmann  

Email President Raab and Chancellor Matos-Rodríguez to ask them to support admissions changes, and email Dr. Fisher and Ms. Siegmann to ask them to publicly support diversity efforts and work towards a better school climate!
