Weldon City Schools Welcomes New Teachers

WELDON, NC 10 AUGUST 2022- A mixture of beginning and veteran teachers was welcomed by Weldon City Schools (WCS) staff as they embarked upon their professional journeys as teachers for the school system. WCS has renewed its efforts to retain and recruit educators at all levels. Newly hired teachers
even receive a signing bonus for joining the Weldon team.

“I expect all of my racers to cross the finish line this year,” remarked Ms. April Allen, a recently hired first-grade teacher. “I used the term racers because I want to keep with the Strive For 55 theme,” she added. Strive For 55 is the theme for all Weldon schools for the 2022-23 school year. Dr. Dannie Williams, The Superintendent of Weldon City Schools has established the Strive For 55 slogan as the goal for the district’s students to reach at least 55% proficiency in all areas tested by the state.

“This is an all-hands-on-deck effort to increase the academic success of our students,” said Superintendent Williams. “It starts in every classroom and continues every day: our students will grow and achieve new heights,” he concluded.

In addition to achievement on state-mandated tests, how much growth students show in their individual academic achievement will be factored into the scores for the school system. Ms. Natasha Rouson, a veteran teacher who is starting her first year with WCS as a third-grade teacher, offered, “Our students have a need, and we’re going to have a great time and grow this year.”

Superintendent Visits Open House And Welcomes Weldon’s Families and Staff

WELDON, NC 10 AUGUST 2022- As the summer break approached its end, students and their families came out to Weldon City Schools (WCS) on Wednesday, August 10th for the annual open house event at each school. Students were able to pickup their class schedules, get their laptops, and meet their new teachers and staff for the 2022-23 school year.

Though summer break is highly anticipated for most students, the new school marks an opportunity to make new friends and to reconnect with friends they might not have seen over the summer break. “The best part of the school year is seeing my friends again,” said Angel Clinton, a WCS sixth grader. “And, science is my favorite thing at school- I like to make stuff,” offered Angel.

“The excitement and anticipation of a new school year is like nothing else,” remarked Dr. Dannie Williams, Superintendent of Weldon City Schools. “I’m pleased with the staff we have and for the expectations we have set for them and our students,” continued Superintendent Williams. “The meet-and-greet of our open house events at the schools gets the year started on a positive note,” he added.
