Message from Dr. Reilly


Dear Teachers and Instructional Staff,
  
This year holds immense potential. As Superintendent Leon has said, this is a “Brand New Day”-- one we must seize.
 
This past summer, several hundred of you worked with directors and supervisors from the Office of Teaching and Learning to revise the curriculum.  You helped to ensure better timelines, the inclusion of lesson bridges between concepts to be taught and what students know, and revised tasks, texts, and lessons, including learning intentions and success criteria. Your work charts paths teachers and students will walk this year and we are grateful to you.
 
We know that what rests in teachers’ hands is a critical matter and that those hands are sturdy. Although changes have been made, you likely have found that the curriculum remains familiar. These new documents approved by the Newark Board of Education should guide your lesson planning. In addition to curriculum development, many of these master teachers also taught peers at the end of August. At that time, across the city, curriculum writers led many of the district’s professional development. This represents a critical next step in improving learning outcomes for our students. We look forward to welcoming teachers as instructors of teacher residencies. This is the place we have been heading to--one that privileges teachers in the development and articulation of teaching and learning.
 
We also wanted to acknowledge the awesome and statistically stunning achievement at every high school by eleventh-grade students on the NJPGA. Congratulations to the students, their teachers and principals, and Dr. Ortiz and her team. This achievement allows us to learn what worked, what can be replicated, what must be reinforced, what must be revised, and what learning designs can be applied to grades 3-9.  As we are readying for Saturday Academies beginning for 11th graders on December 2 and for elementary students on January 6, last year's success will inform this year's work.
 
First Lady Michelle Obama wrote in her memoir, Becoming, “There’s power in allowing yourself to be known and heard, in owning your unique story, in using your authentic voice. And there’s grace in being willing to know and hear others.” 
 
Your voices and stories matter greatly, as does our collective capacity and willingness to know and hear others.

Dr. Reilly & The Office of Teaching and Learning
