Principal's Message

It is with great pleasure and a renewed sense of excitement that we welcome our families back to Dunne Technology Academy as we embark upon the 2008-2009 school year. We are pleased to have you with us as we continue our important job   of working together to provide each of our students a quality education.

This year, we enter our third year together! We have made great strides with significant growth and positive change. This is only the beginning! Our ultimate goal of Whole-School Improvement is to increase student learning and achievement by focusing intensely on improving instruction. Over the past two years, we have been working very hard, engaging in continuous pursuits to “Raise the Standards of Excellence”. We are making progress, and you should take pride in what we have accomplished together.

Perhaps the accomplishment of which we are most proud is our new Technology  Program. It will mean an enhanced curriculum with strategic technology integration and implementation. This may give us our greatest challenge yet, but promises to deepen our students’ learning and ensure their preparation for high-quality high schools with skills that position them to compete globally and pursue career paths based upon today’s technological exposure.

We sincerely thank you for your support! We look forward to working with you this year as we are poised to set the standard for what education ought to be. With our new Technology Program, others in the city, across the country and around the world will be watching very closely to see the innovative, entrepreneurial and developing ways we educate our students. That’s a wonderful endorsement in education circles and   we are grateful we can be in the lead.

 

Educationally Yours,
