Superintendent's Newsletter BEDFORD PUBLIC SCHOOLS SUPERINTENDENT’S NEWSLETTER Fall, 2001 It is a distinct honor for me to pen this initial message to the residents of Bedford as your new superintendent of schools. For the past four years I have been privileged to serve you as as- sistant superintendent and to have a “master” superintendent, Joseph Buckley, as my mentor. For all of us involved in the Bedford Public Schools, the retirement of Mr. Buckley marks a Inside this issue: significant change; his legacy of tenacious advocacy for children and unwavering respect for differences, however, remain a part of the fabric of the many individuals and the system he so ably molded. Special points of With the start of the 2001-2002 school year, significant change is in the air as we welcome 32 interest: new teachers and 3 administrators to the Bedford Public Schools. New administrators include Vicki Simms, Assistant Superintendent; Thomas Campbell, John Glenn Middle School Princi- · Superintendent’s Message pal; and Henry DeRucha, Director of Research and Technology. In addition, with the retire- ment of two key Program Administrators, we congratulate Michael Griffin on his promotion to · Emergency School Closing the position of Program Administrator for Science and we welcome aboard Marcia Burns, Pro- gram Administrator for Career Education. Those of you familiar with a recent bestseller, Who · Health Services Moved My Cheese?, which cleverly describes our varying abilities to adapt to change, will appreciate the administrative team’s adoption of this as a “textbook” to help us analyze our- · New Administrators selves and one another during the upcoming school year. As we consider our individual and collective ability to respond to change, it is my hope that more often than not our behavior · Special Education will replicate the behavior of the character “Sniff” who is most successful in discovering and embracing the new possibilities inherent in a rapidly changing environment. · Calendar of School Events One of our key initiatives for the 2001-2002 school year will be the development of a 2011 Vi- sion Statement. Long term Bedford residents will probably remember the development of the 2001 Vision Statement. For the last decade that vision has served us well by informing and supporting Bedford’s continuous advancement in the instructional technology arena. That vision has distinguished Bedford in the educational community enabling us to acquire Inside this issue: competitive grant dollars which support our classroom teachers as they pilot new technolo- gies and refine instructional practices.. It is now time to revisit that vision and “imagine” where we want our schools to be in 2011. With your input and wisdom, we hope to develop a Middle School Construction 2 vision that will serve the schools well for the next decade. The other initiative I would like to highlight here is the onset of the John Glenn Middle School Curriculum Highlights 2 addition/renovation project. Later in the newsletter you will find an update on the nuts and bolts of the project. What I want to underscore is how this project serves as a visible symbol Personnel Changes 4 of why Bedford is such a special place to work. As you know, we opened the bids for this pro- ject on June 1 and were dismayed to find that the lowest bidder exceeded the cost estimates by 16.5%. What happened after June 1 is a story that, in my view, warrants a special place in MCAS Test Dates 6 the local archives. All the town leaders joined the Bedford School Committee and the JGMS Building Committeewith one goal in mind: Identify the scope of the problem and come to- gether to formulate a solution. That teamwork translated into the scheduling of a July 2 Spe- Title IX Notification 7 cial Town Meeting where the residents overwhelmingly approved the project. I cite this event because to me it provides a vivid example of how your town values and provides for its children.

  • Class of 1981 New Student Handbook
    ()tJ~ 0 ~ @ ~ - ....... ,,,...... ~ @ It could almost begin "once upon a time." The necessary ingredi ents are there--a dream, a castle, a sense of ever after. But the tale is not a fable; it is the amazing story of Brandeis University. For more than a century American Jews had nurtured a dream of creating a university which evoked their ancient heritage of scholarship and their gratitude to a nation which offered them haven and freedom . On October 11, 1948, the dream became a reality. Th e first Jewish-sponsored, nonsectarian university in the United States, named in memory of Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis , opened its doors on the campus of what had been Middlesex Un iversity . Startling in contrast t o the few buildings which originally dotted the 250-acre campus stood--perhaps as a portend to future greatness--a castle .. This imposing structure, designed after medieval architecture, had been part of Middlesex. Known as the Usen Castle, it is still a campus landmark, but is now surrounded by 70 buildings--some perhaps more impressive, but none so unique . Dr . Abram L. Sachar, historian and teacher , became Brandeis' first president and served in that capacity for twenty years at which time he became chancellor of the University. His recently published book, A Host At Last, chronicles the fantas tic growth of Brandeis--thanks to the steadfast commi t ment and magnificent generosity of the American J ewish community. Dr . Marver H. Bernstein, former dean of the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs at Princet on University, has been president since 1972.
