Principal's Welcome
Greetings Parents and Families of Weatherly Area School District:
As principals of the Weatherly Area School District, it is our pleasure to welcome everyone back for another great year in Weatherly. We are all excited to have students back in out classroom and hallways filling them with energy and enthusiasm for learning. It is our mission to help every child feel welcomed, connected, and part of the Weatherly Wrecker family. Additionally, we strive to challenge each student to grow in his or her academic ability and to be career-ready by the end of the fours years. Weatherly Area has great teachers who spend hours of planning and creating classroom activities to engage our students in learning. Our teachers utilize research-based best practices and analyze academic data to determine current skill levels and to set goals for growth and improvement We believe that all students should graduate from high school prepared for the demands of postsecondary education, meaningful careers and effective citizenship.
We believe that great schools are the results of great teachers, so our primary objective will be to ensure that every student is receiving high-quality instruction from every teacher at WASD. In order to do this, we will be providing teachers with feedback on their instruction, access to professional development, and reaching out to parents for support with academic and behavioral concerns to ensure our students are prepared for college and 21st century careers.
Thank you for the opportunity to serve your families in this role! Please do not hesitate to reach out to if you have any questions, concerns, or ideas you would like to share.
Sincerely,
Anthony DeSpirito and Christopher Kimmel
Middle School / High School Principal - Anthony DeSpirito
