As we start our new year, I am reminded of our one goal: Student Learning.
Newark Unified School District's theme and focus is on student learning. From that, we will not waiver. In my six months in Newark Unified School District, I have found an amazing group of dedicated educators who believe not only in the potential of every child, but act on that belief.
Starting in the fall with "Back to School" nights, I was pleased to see the support and interest in our schools.
I have been able to meet students, visit with many teachers and our maintenance/custodial and central office staff. I believe we are on our way to provide 21st Century learning to all our students.
The Newark Community is an extraordinary place to work, play, raise a family, and educate our children. I could not ask for a better place to serve.
Our students deserve the best educational program and facilities.
I feel welcome here! Thank you for your support, even in this excruciatingly difficult financial down turn.
