To help them get to know our town, the team embarked on a tour of Summit, guided by Jefferson Principal Dan Healy and Wilson and Jefferson Primary Centers Principal Evan Kozak. The tour included a special stop at the Summit Area YMCA.

Thanks to our PTOs for providing our new staff with gift cards to support our downtown Summit businesses.

Summit Public Schools’ newest educators were welcomed to the district during the annual Summit Educator Training.

It was an opportunity to dive into district policies and procedures while getting to know the faces behind our schools. Superintendent Scott Hough and Human Resources Director Robert Gardella got things started with opening remarks.

Instructional Facilitator Amy Sweeney led a fun icebreaker, where everyone shared their own "stats"—from years of experience and degrees earned to the miles traveled this summer.

Our new team members also received a warm community welcome from local leaders, including Mayor Elizabeth Fagan, Board of Education President Eileen Kelly, and Summit Public Library Head of Youth Services Ann-Marie Aymer.

This week there will be several training sessions and a tour of Summit, thanks to the coordination by Human Resources Assistant Valerie Bampe.

Welcome to these talented educators joining us and can't wait to see the impact they'll have on our students!
