Aldine ISD Starts Year With New Employee Orientation

Disponible en:

The 2022-2023 school year is approaching quickly, and campuses across Aldine have been preparing for the August 17th day when the doors open. The new year brings new faces as Aldine I.S.D. hosted its annual New Employee Orientation (NEO) at Davis High school this past Friday. With many new teachers, paraprofessionals, and other staff joining the district, the NEO is a way to connect the people working together to improve the students of this district. During the orientation, Superintendent Dr. LaTonya M. Goffney had a message for the new employees: “know your power, know your district, and know your why.”

“Know your power, and stay around people who sharpen you because power shrinks around negativity and know with our job comes purpose.”

After hearing from Dr. Gofffney, the new staff went into individual sessions to discuss topics related to their roles and responsibilities. This allowed new staff to ask questions and learn more about what to expect in their first year from instructional leaders.

The NEO was highlighted by a performance from the Davis dance team and a simple yet effective spirit chant, “Good Job, Good Job Aldine,” with the new employees chanting along, led by Dr. Goffney. To energize the new staff ahead of their first year in the district, Aldine continues to show its support and appreciation for all new members.
