Half of the day will be instructional, while the other half will offer play-based activities important to early childhood development. An investment was made in Early Childhood Education as kindergarten students now have the opportunity to participate in a full-day cost-free program, effective September 2022.We have also maintained all existing programs and positions from last year as part of a "no-cut" budget. We have added programs and infrastructural improvements, most recently with the employment of both a Gifted and Talented teacher and Basic Skills teaching assistants who will enhance the district's ability to meet the individual needs of all students.The district has currently balanced enrollment across all neighborhood elementary schools and eliminated most of the inequities that formerly existed with a wide range of uneven class sizes.This was a culmination of work from district-wide surveys, focus groups, and community collaboration. We completed a shared district vision that clearly identifies our collective core values and aspirations.With the support of the Board of Education, we have successfully worked together and have much to be proud of. Teachers, administrators, nurses, buildings and grounds workers, bus drivers, support staff, and district aides work tirelessly to support every student.
Our parents are enthusiastic and deeply committed to their child's education. There isn't a day that passes that I am not mindful and grateful for our school community. Since then, with your support, I am very proud that we have done so much more than just "survived" COVID we have thrived.
In some ways, it seems like such a short time ago that you welcomed me to the district in August 2020, at a time of great uncertainty as the pandemic had just begun. It is difficult to believe that I am entering my third year as superintendent of schools. Dear Haddon Township School District Community,
