  • Waterbury Public Schools ANNUAL REPORT 2010‐2011
    Waterbury Public Schools ANNUAL REPORT 2010‐2011 CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION Assistant Superintendent of Schools for Curriculum & Instruction Paul V. Sequeira, Ed.D. School year 2010-2011 was a balanced and productive one in all areas of the Curriculum and Instruction Department. In addition to the academic accomplishments, purchasing, implementation, and training in technology were at their highest ever. The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act gave the district the opportunity to invest in technology for every school. This investment came with a built-in training module for staff on SMART Boards and hand-held technology. Perhaps the greatest inroad made in the district has been the development of the data warehouse, a vital tool for accessing a myriad of data for efficient operation of the school system. The Center for Curriculum & Research is proud to state that technology has grown over the last four years, bringing the district to a technological forefront amongst surrounding school districts in terms of hand-held technology, and SharePoint/Excel/Data Collection. Content supervisors have worked diligently in seeking and securing grant funds towards this end. Our greatest challenge will be the preparation for online testing for all students by 2014. As such, grants and district efforts through general funds will be fully explored for this initiative. • ENHANCING LITERACY THROUGH SCHOOL LIBRARIES GRANT Waterbury received this grant from the US Department of Education three times for a total of $1.4 million. Most of the money has been encumbered on technology which has increased motivation and student learning in the district. All 20 elementary schools participated, so we have equity across the district.
