WINNERS ANNOUNCED FOR THE 2025 GOVERNOR'S EDUCATOR OF THE YEAR!
The 2025 Educator of the Year: Mrs. Gretchen Biederman, Special Education Teacher
The 2025 Educational Services Professional of the Year: Ms. Colette Baills, School Counselor
Both honorees rose to the top through a combination of impactful work, meaningful relationships, and the strong support expressed throughout the submissions of students, parents, and staff members.
This year, the inclusion of student voices made an immeasurable difference. We received 237 responses —a remarkable level of engagement! Students took the time to have their voices heard—and their voices were loud and clear. They value our staff and are grateful for the many ways they make a difference in their lives.
The State's process requires that the scores be carefully tallied based on the numerical ratings each committee member assigned to the various nominations. Each member’s evaluations were compiled and averaged to determine the final scores, ensuring that the selection process was fair, transparent, and reflected the collective input of the committee.
Nominations in support of Gretchen's candidacy painted a portrait of a teacher who has spent more than two decades shaping a truly exceptional program. Her Life Skills and Community-Based Instruction classroom is a warm, structured, and deeply compassionate learning environment that feels more like a home than a classroom. The committee noted her unwavering commitment to ensuring her students develop independence through authentic experiences—whether they are running the Tiger Treats Café, participating in monthly “Out on the Town” trips, or building friendships with peers through the Tiger Tribe program. These opportunities reflect Gretchen’s belief that every student deserves to be fully included in the school and wider community, and she works tirelessly to make that vision a reality. Her dedication extends far beyond instruction; she is known to quietly purchase clothing, hygiene items, and furnishings so her students have what they need to learn with comfort and dignity. Her positive energy, advocacy, and genuine love for her “family” of students were woven through every nomination and clearly resonated with the committee.
In a different but equally meaningful way, Colette’s impact came through powerfully in her nominations. The nominations consistently described Colette as a trusted, steady presence—someone who listens without judgment, helps students navigate challenging moments, and always finds time for a child in need, even on the busiest of days. Students described leaving her office feeling lighter, happier, and more grounded, thanks to her encouragement and calm approach. Her ability to mediate conflict, restore relationships, and help students feel safe and understood has made her an anchor of support for students throughout the building. Colette’s warmth, compassion, and genuine belief in the students she serves shine through in every interaction, and her influence on students is unmistakable.
CONGRATULATIONS AND THANK YOU FOR BEING AMAZING EDUCATORS!

MAGNET PROGRAM SHOWCASE INFORMATION
On Tuesday, October 28, 2025 at 6:30 PM, Hunterdon Central Regional High School is hosting a Magnet Program Showcase, which will provide you with information on the academies offered through Hunterdon Central’s Magnet Program as your student starts considering their options for high school. Did you know there are currently six academies? They are Architectural Design, Biomedical Science, Computer Science, Engineering, Media & Communications, and Robotics - all offered at Hunterdon Central! In addition, the Performing Arts and Learners to Leaders Education academies will be launched in 2026-2027.
The Showcase is a great opportunity to explore the academies and talk with the teachers and current academy students. Hunterdon Central’s Magnet Program offers students opportunities to pursue specialized programs that empower them to focus on a particular passion or career area - all while staying at their home high school! Each academy consists of a cohesive series of three or four courses and includes opportunities for dual enrollment or articulated college credit, an industry-valued credential, or both. Students will conclude their Central academy courses with a capstone-type experience, which can include an independent research project, an internship or mentorship experience, and/or an independent student experience such as a college course or a credential. Students who successfully complete an academy will earn an endorsement on their high school transcript.
You can learn more about Hunterdon Central’s Magnet Program here: https://www.hcrhs.org/academics/program-of-studies/magnet-program.
We hope you can join us on October 28th at 6:30PM for this special event! The Showcase will be held in the Commons in the 11/12 building, which is the main building on Junction Road attached to the fieldhouse. Please enter through the main glassed entrance.
