Kor to Return to Principle Position in Irvington

1. Return of the Main Street School Principal: Dr. Raina Kor, who has served the Irvington school district as Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Human Resources for the past two years, will once again lead the Main Street School when she returns to her prior position of Principal on July 1.

Kor is in her 13th year of service to the school district. She served for five years as Assistant Principal of Irvington Middle School and six years as Principal of Main Street School before the central administrative appointment that began on July 1, 2012.

“These past two years have been an extraordinary experience, but my heart is ultimately with the students and families of Main Street School,” Kor said. “I am a child-centered professional, and with the future of Main Street School resolved, I am excited to return to the environment that allows me to once again work directly with elementary students and families.”
