The superintendent, Dr. Harrison Goodwin, shared the school district’s vision, goals, and teaching philosophies and emphasized that building a relationship with a student is essential to the learning process. He presented each new teacher with a Chesterfield County School District lapel pin that displayed the district’s motto, “Excellence in Academics, Arts, and Athletics” and reminded the group that as school district employees, we need to be “unified, dedicated and working together to benefit all the students in Chesterfield County.”
Other topics covered at the orientation included curriculum, technology, personnel, certification, and the ADEPT process.
A delicious lunch was enjoyed by the group and allowed a time for administrators and educators to share information and get acquainted. The meal was sponsored by Founders Federal Credit Union.
