Walking into James Corino’s office one finds a unique individual who is truly an educator at heart. His walls are decorated with information regarding the many cohorts being administered by Dr. Corino in the field of Education Leadership.
True to his character everything is in its place labeled, clipped and banded. One can see the organizational skills which “Jim” abides by. Staying for a few moments we hear the phone ring numerous times while hundreds of emails flood his computer.
Jim Corino’s patience and diligence allow him to take all the time needed to respond to inquiries, requests and issues that arise for and from current, graduated and prospective students.
Dr. Corino is a fabulous administrator, recruiter and teacher. He has a long and star studded career in K-12 education. He has served as teacher, principal and deputy superintendent. He has coached basketball and football on the high school level to state championships. He is indeed the consummate educator. He can be found working 24/7 or 36/7 if it existed, recruiting and mentoring educational leaders for the 21st century in his position at Seton Hall University.
His knowledge and skill sets are complemented by his honesty, integrity and compassion for all human beings but especially for the students who enter his programs.
Go Get ‘Em Jim C.
I am in total agreement!!! I know Jim since the early days at Lyndhurst. THE BEST ADMINISTRATOR , I have ever known ! A great loss when he left Lyndhurst . We still feel the void today. Should have been Superintendent there and in Nutley. What a mistake both of those BOE’s made. He is the quintessential Educator/Leader. THANKS for all the help. The HALL should also have him on the staff of the Basketball program . One of the best Hoops minds in the state ..could really help coach Willard with X and O’s and “DEFENSE”. A veteran of his experience is invaluable. Glad he is at the Hall !! Steve Picciano’73
