Clifton Public Schools was excited to welcome our newest staff members to One Clifton during New Staff Orientation!
Their first day kicked off with Assistant Superintendent Mr. Gengaro’s “Clifton Struck” presentation, where new staff learned about the key elements of what it means to have the Clifton Rockstar mentality and make a positive difference each day.
This was no ordinary presentation! Designed as a rock concert-style experience, Clifton Struck featured lights, music, drumsticks for every staff member, and live performances by the Clifton "After School Sessions" band, made up of talented Clifton staff members.
Following Clifton Struck, new staff heard from Superintendent Dr. Robertozzi, members of the district’s central administration team, and Clifton Board of Education President Judy Bassford as they learned more about our schools, our district, and the people who make Clifton such a special place to learn, work, and grow.
As this one-of-a-kind introduction to One Clifton came to a close, our newest staff members were encouraged to carry that Rockstar mentality with them throughout the year—to find their beat, make their mark, and let their inner rock star SHINE!
New Staff: Welcome to the band! We’re excited to see the energy, talents, and ideas you’ll bring to our students and school communities.
