Jeffrey M. Green, Ed.D., Hilton High School principal, has been named to Rochester Business Journal’s Forty Under 40. The Forty Under 40 awards recognize Rochester’s leaders who are younger than 40 years old based on their professional accomplishments, community service, and a commitment to inspiring change. They are selected by an outside panel of judges, including previous honorees and business leaders.
“Dr. Green is a consummate professional who cares deeply for our students, families, and staff,” said Hilton School District Superintendent Dr. Casey Kosiorek. “The students at the high school and the entire district have benefited from his commitment to education and his ethical leadership. We are fortunate that he is a member of the Cadet Nation.”
Prior to joining the Hilton Central School District in August 2018, Green served as principal of Odyssey Academy (grades 6-12) in the Greece Central School District. He also served as assistant principal at Athena High School in Greece, and associate superintendent for the Diocese of Rochester. Green began his career teaching and serving as an instructional coach in the Rochester City School District.
Green’s education includes a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Ithaca College, a master’s in business and marketing education from Nazareth College, a Certificate of Advanced Study in school building and district leadership, and a doctoral degree in teaching and curriculum from the University of Rochester Warner School.
“The Hilton Central School District is filled with caring and compassionate educators and support staff,” said Green. “I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to work alongside supportive colleagues who are always focused on doing what is best for students.”
“The 2022 Forty Under 40 are successful young leaders in demanding careers, who find time to give back to our community in a meaningful way,” said Suzanne Fischer-Huettner, senior group publisher of the Rochester Business Journal. “They are doing more than their share to make Rochester a great place to live and work.”
This year’s Forty Under 40 will be honored November 16 at an awards celebration at The Strong Museum of Play. Honorees will be profiled in a magazine that will be inserted into the November 18 issue of the Rochester Business Journal and will be available online at RBJ.net.
Green lives in the town of Greece, Hilton School District, with his wife, Erica, and their daughters, Avery age 9, and Quinn, age 7.
