East Meadow Welcomes its Newest Teachers

The new staff will start with the 2016-17 school year.

The East Meadow School District welcomed 32 new teachers, staff and faculty to the district during its annual new teacher orientation at the Leon J. Campo Salisbury Center on Aug. 31.

Superintendent of Schools Leon J. Campo, Assistant Superintendent for Curriculum and Instruction Cindy Munter and Assistant Superintendent for Personnel and Administration Anthony Russo welcomed the new cohort and offered advice for a successful school year.

“Our children come by our way once and we owe them our very best,” said Campo. “You’re surrounded by wonderful and supportive staff who are always willing to help. Utilize them, and in return, we ask that you give your very best each and every day.”
