School Committee meeting highlights the positive

Thanks to all of you and your respective teams who presented at last night’s school committee meeting!

In particular, I thought our students and teachers recognized for their music accomplishments were magnificent along with the RtTT Early Learning Challenge Grant presentation by Erin Craft and Paul Foster’s very informative presentation to update the public regarding our work to improve student support plans.

In short, I felt the meeting focused on the right issues and the informational/discussion items gave further evidence of our progress towards the vision of “educational excellence.”

While we have a ways to go, there are signs of “hope” all around us.
