Norwich Middle School Meet and Greet gave students sneak peek
NORWICH – New and returning students had the chance to see the results of the Norwich Middle School’s multi-million dollar renovation between noon and 4:30 p.m. Wednesday.
Many sixth, seventh and eighth grade students took the opportunity to walk through their schedules, meet teachers and even start loading up their lockers.
The students, as well as accompanying family members, skirted boxes and furniture in the building’s hallways as they explored the facility with maps in hand.
Despite the debris waiting to be either unpacked or removed, energy and enthusiasm in the building was high. The building’s newly-tenured principal, Lisa Schuchman, said she was impressed by her staff’s hard work in getting the Middle School ready for students and in their levels of energy and enthusiasm.
“It’s great to see everyone coming together like a family,” she said.
The afternoon was a busy one for Schuchman and her staff as they greeted guests, assured nervous parents and students, gave directions and explained schedules.
There was a little frustration as new students struggled to get lockers open for the first time, but plenty of “ooohhing” and “aaahhing” over the building’s newest features.
“It is so cool that they put that in,” said one seventh grader to a friend, referring to the Middle School’s new courtyard.
Contract approved for interim principal
NORWICH – Norwich High School’s interim principal has a new contract with the district. On Tuesday night, the Norwich City School Board of Education approved a full-time employment contract for Dr. Robert Cleveland, who assumed the command position at the high school at the end of May.
According to Superintendent Gerard O’Sullivan, Cleveland will be paid a salary of $90,000 a year plus benefits under the new agreement. The contract replaces the per diem agreement passed by the board earlier this year, under which Cleveland received a rate of $400 per day for his services.
O’Sullivan, who has referred to Cleveland as a “respected, veteran educator,” said he has every confidence in the interim principal.
“Parents should be very comfortable with the progress that the building will make (under Cleveland’s leadership),” said the superintendent.
