Reflections during graduation week, Class of 2018

As I met with high school seniors, I asked for their ideas on how we could improve grading. Many interesting ideas emerged.

This is the second in a series of blogs based on feedback from high school seniors which I received while visiting every high school.

This series of blogs will explore common themes discussed by seniors during my visits to every high school. These young adults offered valuable insights for consideration.

If you have ever watched Channel 18 or viewed videos created for our staff or caught an episode of “Tweet of the Week,” you have experienced the creative talents of the members of our Television Services Team!

As I visit with seniors in high schools across the county, I am always impressed by the insights they share with me. I want to pass some of their wisdom along in this and future blog posts.

The rise of social media makes it imperative that we teach our students the importance of “digital citizenship.”

A teacher delivering high quality instruction and nurturing positive relationships with students is critical to every child’s success. Ensuring we have the best teachers in every classroom is a key component of our system’s strategic plan.
