Dr. Tony Sinanis Biography

Dr. Tony Sinanis is an educator, author, and school leader with more than two decades of experience in New York's public school system. Sinanis has held various positions in education, including elementary classroom teacher, elementary principal, and district administrator. He began his career as a classroom teacher in New York City schools and Hewlett-Woodmere, teaching third, fourth, and fifth grades. Sinanis holds a Bachelor of Science in early childhood and elementary education from New York University, a master's degree in instructional and educational technology, a professional diploma in educational leadership and technology from New York Institute of Technology, and a doctorate in educational leadership from the University of Pennsylvania.

Sinanis gained national recognition as a building leader at Cantiague Elementary School in Jericho, New York. Cantiague was named a National Blue Ribbon School, and Sinanis received the New York State Elementary Principal of the Year Award and the national Bammy Award for Elementary School Principal of the Year. As part of his doctoral studies, Sinanis explored the relationship between active participation on Twitter and the professional development of principals, emphasizing digital learning and community-building in his educational leadership philosophy.

Sinanis has co-authored three books with Dr. Joe Sanfelippo, including "Hacking Leadership," "The Power of Branding," and "Principal Professional Development" (Corwin Press). In "Hacking Leadership," Sanfelippo and Sinanis outline strategies for school leaders to build strong relationships, shift mindsets, and create dynamic school cultures.

Sinanis has presented at national and local conferences on topics such as school culture, educational leadership, social media, and school branding. He is the founder and co-moderator of #NYedchat and co-hosts the "Successful Schools" podcast with Sanfelippo. Sinanis has served as superintendent of schools for Hastings-on-Hudson Schools in Hastings, New York, and as assistant superintendent for human resources and leadership development in the Chappaqua Central School District. He has also held roles as superintendent, assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction, and building principal in Westchester and Nassau counties. Sinanis’s administrative experience and classroom background inform his contributions to discussions on transformative educational leadership, digital learning, and school branding.
