Mission
Statement
The mission of the East Haddam School District, where
people are our greatest resource, is to develop a community of life-long
learners through a rigorous instructional program delivered by a caring,
competent staff dedicated to preparing productive citizens for our diverse and
changing society.
Critical
Issues
The East Haddam Board of Education believes that the
following identified critical issues must be addressed in order for the
district to attain its mission.
Curriculum development is
a dynamic and continuous process by which a school system plans, implements,
and evaluates its educational programs in a coherent and logical manner.
Curriculum guides the teaching/learning process by defining what is to be
learned, how it is to be learned and how it will be assessed. Inherent in this
process is a need for a comprehensive professional development program,
including a differentiated teacher evaluation model that will lead to improved
student learning.
The responsibility of the
East Haddam community is to provide facilities to support the changing
educational needs of its children. These facilities must also provide for the
delivery of community-based programs. As a result of the needs of this growing
community and changing educational requirements, a comprehensive plan must
address modifications to present facilities and the creation of plans for new
facilities.
Relationships that are
based on mutual respect and trust can have life long positive impacts on
intellectual, social, and emotional growth and development of a person. The
East Haddam Public Schools will nurture the development of positive
relationships and maintain trust between students, staff, teachers and
administrators, parents, Board of Education, town government and community
members in order to create a supportive learning environment that inspires
confidence and facilities the health and wellness of its members.
