FROM MRS. HUBBARD, PRINCIPAL
Teachers at Governor Winslow School work extremely hard to meet the needs of all students. They attend professional development to keep up with current practices, particularly in the areas of literacy and math. Most importantly, our teachers are focused on the social emotional well being of their students. Our staff meetings are jam packed with hard work and important information, but we always seem to end with a smile. Our Governor Winslow School community is blessed to have such talented and dedicated teachers working with our children.
