Where's Mendez?

During the summer, our former principal, Mr. Mendez was promoted to superintendent of Queens. This means he will now be one of the most powerful administrators in the department of education.

Mr. Mendez advanced in his career as an educational leader and he is now responsible for the development of the 100-plus schools in Queens. Mr. Mendez was promoted based on his 14 years of success in developing the high school for Enterprise, Business and Technology as founder and principal of EBT. Mr. Mendez lead the school through a transformation from a failing school (Eastern District High) to a successful school that  has received “A’s” on its yearly quality review from the Department of Education.

Mr. Mendez will be missed, from his lively personality to his lengthy lengthy speeches.We wish Mr. Mendez continued success in his new role of superintendent and we welcome him back to our school and community.
