Somerville Schools is thrilled to welcome our new staff members! Their journey began with a comprehensive orientation, the first step in our induction process. During this time, they had the opportunity to get to know one another and become familiar with our school's procedures, protocols, and systems.
Our teachers also had dedicated time to review curriculum frameworks, tour the town, and connect with their building administrators. This orientation was designed to provide them with the support they need to make a smooth transition into their new roles. Looking forward to a great year!
To get to know them better, we asked what they were most excited about this school year. Visit any of our school web pages and scroll to the Spotlight section to read their answers. Let's give them a warm welcome! š
