Today was MERSD's New Teacher Induction Day. This is one of my favorite days of the year. As a Superintendent, this is the equivalent to meeting a new class at the beginning of the year. Hosted by Scott Morrison, Director of Curriculum & Technology, it is the day we invite all new faculty to spend the morning getting to know the district better. We introduce them to the full-year staff, share with them the district mission and vision, and provide them an overview of our expectations for teaching and learning. I have been incredibly impressed with the level of professionalism and student-centeredness that our new members have exhibited, and I am certain they will make our team stronger.
