Last week, though short, was very productive. In-service training opportunities were conducted for our principals on both Tuesday and Thursday with the focus being on the implementation of our Teacher Evaluation System aptly named, Empowering Excellence in Educators, but commonly referred to as Triple E internally.
The monthly board meeting for the St. Johns County Education Foundation took place this week, and they continue to make significant strides in programs and partnerships that benefit our schools, and ultimately our students. I am always proud of the work that they do and the creative partnerships that they secure. The High School Showcase will be a highpoint of this week, with all eighth-grade students traveling to the World Golf Village to preview our high school career academies, ROTC programs and accelerated
programs. The showcase provides a wonderful way to be introduced to these amazing academies offered in our high schools and help to make decisions that may shape a life-long career. I encourage those of you who are parents to attend the evening session on Thursday, January 26 from 5:30-8 p.m. so that you can become knowledgeable about these opportunities along with your children.
Join Superintendent Dr. Joseph Joyner, Deputy Superintendent of Academic Services Martha Mickler and Deputy Superintendent of Operations Tim Forson as they discuss the new Teacher Evaluation System and how it affects students and teachers now and in the future. |
