The Valley Stream Central High School District has appointed Steven Gilhuley as its new Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction.
Gilhuley steps into the position after serving as the District’s Director of Instructional Services and Grant Funded Programs since 2023. He succeeds Jennifer DiMaio, who was recently promoted to Deputy Superintendent.
“From the very beginning, it was clear that Valley Stream Central High School District is an incredibly welcoming and vibrant school community,” Gilhuley said. “In my new role, I look forward to building on the District’s excellent work to provide a quality and enriching educational experience for all students.”
Gilhuley joined Valley Stream from the Malverne Union Free School District, where he served as Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum, Instruction and Educational Services for seven years. During his tenure in Malverne, he provided leadership in curriculum development and oversaw the implementation of a new K-5 literacy program.
With more than two decades of administrative experience, including nine years as Principal of Howard T. Herber Middle School, Gilhuley has a record of fostering instructional equity, academic rigor and strong school communities. He has also shared his expertise on school culture and innovative scheduling at state and national conferences.
Gilhuley holds a Master of Science in special education from Long Island University, along with New York State certifications in school district administration and school building administration and supervision.
