A Note from the Principal

 

WINCHESTER SCHOOL

July 1, 2008

Text Box: Mid-summer greetings to our Winchester families. 
Even though it is vacation time, many of our staff are participating in professional development opportunities. 

Thirteen teachers will be attending a two-day conference entitled Tools for Data Teams. The conference is presented by the Local Education Support Center and the New Hampshire Department of Education. We will be going to Bartlett, NH on July 29 and 30.
A group of teachers will also be attending a Three-Day Institute in Derry, New Hampshire entitled Building and Sustaining Accountable Professional Communities. We look forward to working together to further develop our professional learning communities so that we  can make a further impact on student achievement.
