Levittown School District students received a warm welcome from administrators and faculty as they disembarked from buses and carpools for the start of the 2016-17 school year. With their backpacks and school supplies in tow, the district’s 7,300 students entered their new classrooms eager to learn, and instruction began immediately.
Superintendent of Schools Dr. Tonie McDonald reported that the school year started smoothly.
“It was gratifying to see the hard work put into our buildings during the summer by the buildings and grounds staff,” she said. “My favorite observation was watching students from every grade level, supplies and backpacks in hand, eagerly greeting teachers, administrators and staff with big smiles and motivated to start the school year. It was a great day to be superintendent of the Levittown School District.”
