About this listen

Schools and education reporter Claire Greenberger joins editor Emily Sachar to talk about some major changes coming to Red Hook High School. The district just approved a slate of new courses for the 2026-27 school year that's getting people excited, including a three-course Race Car Program, an In-House Welding Pathway, AP Cybersecurity, and a new IB Literature and Performance option. These programs move beyond traditional classroom learning, giving students hands-on experience and real-world skills. Claire and Emily discuss what these courses mean for students and the broader community, including the costs, safety measures, and community backing needed to make them happen.

Produced by Emily Sachar, Walter Mullin, Matty Rosenberg, and Jennifer Hammoud at the Radio Free Rhinecilff studio
