Congratulations Shanna Gannon!

Greetings GIPS Staff: 

It is with mixed emotions I am announcing the resignation of Mrs. Shanna Gannon, our Executive Director of Curriculum, Instruction, and Professional Learning. As of July 1, 2020, Mrs. Gannon will be the New Superintendent of Shelton Public Schools.

It is always difficult to lose dedicated, committed, and high performing educators, however, there is comfort in knowing she will continue to lead and serve students through this step forward in her career.  

Mrs. Gannon has contributed to the success of our organization throughout her tenure and empowered all of us to be instructional leaders. Through Empower Hours, a district-wide focus for professional learning, Demonstration Schools for Rigor, task force work, instructional coaches, CIA meetings, C4I days, trend walks, and PLC implementation, Summer Institute, etc...we have been impacted by her leadership! Please join me in acknowledging her efforts as wells as thanking her for her unconditional commitment and dedication.  We definitely wish her the best of success in her new leadership position.  

Human Resources will begin the process to post and advertise to fill this vacancy soon, however, Mrs. Gannon will continue to provide leadership in GIPS through June 30th. 

Seeing is Believing!
