Meet the New Teachers of Deer Park
The Deer Park School District’s newest teachers participated in an orientation program prior to the start of the school year to familiarize themselves with the mission, goals and resources of the district.
Administrators provided the eight new teachers with helpful hints on becoming successful educators and guided them through the necessary steps for designing effective lessons. A theme of preparation and planning was highlighted throughout the presentations, and in the workshops, teachers were encouraged to collaborate with experienced colleagues to gain insight and knowledge.
During the technology portion of the program, teachers learned how to infuse technology into the curriculum and streamline student information for easy access to biographical and academic statistics and facts. To ensure the health and safety of staff and students, the School Safety Officer described the proper protocol in emergency situations and ways to be proactive in safeguarding the building and those inside.
