Dear HISD Family,
The Human Resources Department for HISD
is working to ensure that all employees in
the district are provided with opportunities
for targeted and relevant support so that
they are able to transform the lives of all
students. Our goal is for the district to
achieve recognition at the state and national level with regard to the way
that we develop our most valuable resource, our people. We hope that
employees will not have to go outside the district to experience quality
professional development because they recognize excellence and rigor
in the professional development menu of options.
The spring 2013 workforce development calendar offers innovative
professional learning opportunities for school leaders, as well as central
office staff and managers. This is just the beginning of a comprehensive
approach to developing leadership across the district so that we can
increase our capacity to meet the urgent needs of every child.
Our children deserve the best from all of us.
Rodney Watson, Ph.D.
Chief Human Resources Officer
