The faculty have homework too!

My hope is that each person in the Winchendon School community without regard to whether he or she is an adolescent or adult is committed to being their best in all that he or she does. To that end, in our opening faculty meetings for the year back in early September, I told the faculty that my goal for each of them was to be at least as good students as they are learners. In that vein, while we encouraged the students to relax over spring break, the faculty left with two books to read:

A Long Way Gone by Ishmael Beah

and

Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe

If you have any interest in what we are discussing and thinking about, I encourage you to consider reading either of these. Both are provocative and compelling reads whether you are fourteen, forty-four or eighty-four.

Just thought that you might be interested...
