Superintendent's Message

  • Greetings,

     

    Our schools recognize the individuality of each of their students and are working hard to engage every student by supporting their learning and preparing them for their future. We provide safe, respectful and healthy learning environments while working collaboratively with parents and our community partners. The safety and security of our students and staff is very important to us. We are committed to the academic, character and global citizenship competence of all students in WSSU and strive to do so within the available resources.

     

    The Vermont School Boards Association (VSBA) together with the Vermont Superintendents Association (VSA)  have a joint Agenda for Vermont's children of a World Class Education System. It includes:

    • Assuring Success for All Students
    • Supporting a New Vision for Teaching and Learning
    • Engaging and Supporting Families and Communities
    • Delivering and Using World-Class Technology
    • Providing Effective Leadership

     

    This is ambitious agenda and Act 46 challenges us even more to work together with other schools and increase equity and learning opportunities for all of our students.  It will take the determination and collaborative efforts of our community and staff to make a difference in our students lives.


    Our students depend on our efforts and should expect the very best. Everyday is an opportunity to grow and learn, improve and innovate and achieve excellence so we can effectively respond to our student’s needs.

     

    Please check out each of our school's webpages for more detailed information on programs, initiatives, and events.
