We are excited to announce that 25 of our exceptional educators were granted tenure at Monday’s Board of Education meeting. These dedicated individuals have demonstrated unwavering commitment to their profession and actively integrated themselves into the school community.
The District’s tenure process involves a rigorous probationary period, during which candidates undergo a dozen formal observations and numerous informal check-ins. However, the impact of these educators extends far beyond the classroom. They have become beloved members of our school community, eagerly assuming roles that go beyond their initial responsibilities.
Dr. Hattar expressed his pride in the recipients and celebrated their dedication to their students. “Through their teaching, they have instilled a love for learning, fostered critical thinking, and nurtured intellectual growth. These educators go above and beyond their classroom duties by taking on roles within the school community that go well beyond their initial hiring. They have mentored colleagues, championed students, and, in their relatively short time in our District, made a profound impact on many of us.”
The District takes great pride in recognizing these outstanding educators and their remarkable achievements.
Please join us in congratulating the following educators:
