Westwood Public Schools Seeking Stakeholder Input to Define "Portrait of a Graduate"

Thanks to Westwood Public Schools for contributing this news to Westwood Minute.

Identifying the skills, mindsets and competencies Westwood High School graduates need to thrive in college, the workforce and in life is the goal of a special working group being assembled by Westwood Superintendent of Schools Timothy Piwowar.

“We are searching for a team of stakeholders which will include students, parents/caregivers, teachers, and administrators to help us develop the criteria we feel Westwood High School graduates need in order to be successful beyond our school district,” said Piwowar.

The group will not just focus on high school students. Instead, their work will help form the basis for a new multi-year district strategy that will focus on how Westwood Public School build learning experiences for students from Grades PK-12.

Interested community members must be available to attend all three of the following working sessions:

Wednesday, October 9:      9:30 am. – 12:30 p.m.

Wednesday, October 23:    9:30 am. – 12:30 p.m.

Wednesday, December 4:  9:30 am. – 12:30 p.m.

Committee members will be notified of their selection by October 2.
