Hope Hall School’s Sister Diana Dolce on different learning models

On Thursday, March 23, Sister Diana was a guest at 1 pm on Evan Dawson’s radio show, CONNECTIONS, that is broadcast on WXXI NEWS.

Sister Diana met with Evan in the studio to discuss different learning models, with a focus on the Dolce Method for Learning Mastery®, the method she developed over the course of  her career in education. This is the method that is used at Hope Hall School to teach students who learn differently, to help them thrive academically and become successful learners.

During the course of the interview, the two also discussed Sister Diana’s career, how viable the Dolce Method would be for public schools, the Hope for Tomorrow Campaign, and a variety of other topics.

Two Hope Hall Seniors Receive the “Do the Right Thing” Award

, ,

Congratulations to Joe and Paul Conroy who received the “Do the Right Thing” Award virtually this morning in a ceremony broadcast via a Facebook Live.

The award is received through a process in which community members nominate youth for this award, presented by the Rochester City Police, recognizing youth for their bravery, courage and valor. Characteristics and actions for which one might be nominated include striving to make good choices, doing well in school, giving back to the community or demonstrating “turn-around” or improvement in academics.

The two brothers volunteer, helping at a youth baseball training camp in the town of Gates. When the camp lost electricity, Paul and Joe pulled out their phones as flashlights, and stayed with the 8 to 10 year old campers, calming their concerns, until all parents arrived to pick up their children.

Hope Hall is very proud of these two amazing young men, who demonstrated the values Hope Hall always strives to instill.

In case you missed the award ceremony this morning, you can still catch it here.

Cheyenne Miller, Hope Hall Student, Highlighted on WHEC Channel 10 News

11th grade Hope Hall student, Cheyenne Miller, was featured on WHEC Channel 10 News for her “Do The Right Thing Award” received on June 7, 2018. Cheyenne’s outstanding citizenship and acts of kindness were honored by the Monroe County and Rochester Police Department through this award. Her bus driver of 3 years, Ms. Sara Gillard, nominated Cheyenne for this special award because she acts as a role model to her peers. Cheyenne commends her peers when they act in a respectful, professional manner and will politely address bullying and unprofessional behavior with her classmates one-on-one.

Cheyenne takes a firm stand against bullying and demonstrates daily acts of kindness towards others. Despite her personal struggles at home and in school, Cheyenne has transformed into an exemplary student and model citizen. In her free time, Cheyenne enjoys drawing, painting, listening to music, and going on adventures with friends. We are very proud to have Cheyenne as a student and soon-to-be alumna in June 2019.
