As we approach the end of 2009, I’d like to take a moment to reflect on the numerous people that have contributed to our successful schools. We are grateful to the parents who have given us the opportunity to work with their children and to the work the parents continue to do to help their children grow in positive social and academic ways. We also thank the support staff that have assisted our teachers, kept our buildings clean and given our teaching staff the needed support tools to continue to help the children learn. Our gratitude is expressed to the teachers for their dedication to the profession and their continued desire to improve the learning opportunities for our children. Our committed, professional administrative staff, who works daily to examine our practices making sure we are complying with expectations, have supported and sustained this district for many years with dedicated service. We extend our thanks to board of education members who have given numerous hours to facilitate this journey of continuous learning. This school district is a copulation of all these dedicated individuals working together for a common good.

 Our continued focus in the Waterford Graded Schools is providing high quality instruction within a dynamic learning environment. We use assessment data to guide our instruction. Technology and brain-based research coupled with the fine arts and 21st Century skills are the tools / strategies we use to engage the learners.

As we look forward to the future years for the Waterford Graded School District I think as a team of individuals with different ideas and perspectives we have worked diligently to examine all aspects of our organization so that we can continue to offer our students excellent learning environments.   The “nuts and bolts” of the organization are working quite well. We have quality people, a comprehensive curriculum, and a willingness to promote the cause of education for the benefit of all students with an awareness and understanding of the long term fiscal impact of our decisions.

We wish you a Joyous Holiday Season!

 

 

H1N1 Update

We are experiencing some confirmed cases of HINI in our schools. We are following all of the cleaning instructions and suggestions from the Racine County Health Department and CDC (Center for Disease Control). The Waterford school nurse is monitoring and informing all of the Waterford area administrators of the current HINI confirmations.
