Dear D92 Families,
Welcome to a new and exciting school year! As the Superintendent of Schools, it is my pleasure to extend a warm greeting to all of our families, both those returning and those new to our community. With approximately 1,400 students across our four schools, we are dedicated to fostering an environment where each student can thrive.
Our commitment to your children is rooted in the following core values:
-
Encouraging Perseverance and Resilience: We strive to create a culture where students are empowered to overcome challenges and develop the resilience needed for lifelong success.
-
Embracing a Growth Mindset: Both students and adults in our district are encouraged to adopt a growth mindset, believing in the potential for growth and improvement through effort and perseverance.
-
Focusing on the Whole Child: We prioritize the social-emotional well-being of each student, understanding that a well-rounded education goes beyond academics.
-
Promoting Collaborative Learning: Our schools foster a team-oriented approach, encouraging collaboration among students, staff, and families.
-
Connecting Curriculum to Real-World Experiences: Our curriculum is designed to engage students by linking their learning to their interests, experiences, talents, and the real world.
-
Encouraging Creativity and Curiosity: We create an environment where creativity, curiosity, and responsible risk-taking are not only encouraged but celebrated.
We believe that by adhering to these values, we can provide an enriching and supportive educational experience for each and every student in our district. As we embark on this new school year, we are excited about the opportunities and achievements that lie ahead. Together, we will work to ensure that each student reaches their fullest potential!
Thank you for partnering with us in your children's education. We look forward to a successful and inspiring school year. It’s a great year to be a bulldog!
Sincerely,
Kirsten Frankovich, Ed.D.
Superintendent of Schools
