Shrewsbury Public Schools: Superintendent's Update - June 15, 2021

Press release from the Shrewsbury Public Schools:

June 15, 2021

Dear Shrewsbury Families, Colleagues, & Community Members,

As we approach the end of this extraordinary year, I want to express my gratitude for all you have done to support our students through all of the challenges that the pandemic presented.  The effort and dedication I witnessed have made me even more proud to be a member of this community and this school district.  On behalf of the students, thank you!  

Please read on for information about providing me with feedback; links to view SHS graduation and concert performances; and a link to our district's spring virtual art show!

• Feedback for the Superintendent: I invite SPS families and Shrewsbury community members to take a couple of minutes to complete a very brief survey to provide me with feedback regarding my communication and leadership during this past school year.  I will share the results publicly as part of my evaluation by the School Committee.  You can access the survey here. (Colleagues, please see your school email for a separate staff survey).

• Link to the SPS Grades K-12 Virtual Spring Art Festival: Please click here to view a slide show of student artwork created during the second half of the school year in both in-person and remote settings.  These student artists have created some incredible pieces - enjoy!

The examples of student success found above could not have been possible without the very skillful work of our educators and staff and the support of our families and community.  I hope you feel the same sense of pride that I do in what our students have accomplished, especially this past year.

Respectfully,

Joe Sawyer
Superintendent of Schools
