Why
Exceptional Educators Choose West Hartford Public Schools
|
One of our
district's veteran teachers has a good way to describe how educators in
the West Hartford Public Schools feel about what they do. Every morning,
he says, when he first steps inside his classroom, he is unwrapping a
present--the gift of working with high-achieving students and
professionals who commit enormous intellect, energy and enthusiasm to
their schools and to their careers. What's more, he is teaching
within an involved community which values not only public education, but
also the educators who form the heart of our system.
Within this environment of dedication, teamwork and mutual respect, our school community strives to attain excellence at all levels. We set high standards for student performance and teacher effectiveness--and we meet these goals by constantly improving our instructional strategies and materials. We focus our fiscal and human resources squarely on teaching and learning. We engage our partners--parents, educators, community leaders and residents--in delivering the best possible education for our students. Every teacher who joins the West Hartford Public Schools receives significant encouragement, support, and opportunity for professional and personal rewards. Every teacher helps fulfill the promise that all our students, each with unique needs, circumstances, and talents, will achieve success. David P. Sklarz, Ed.D. |
