State of Schools 2015Special Message from Dr. Khalid Mumin
Reading School District is moving in the right direction, but we need your help to address key areas and sustain our successful momentum. Since my appointment on July 14, 2014, the Red Knight family has embraced me, and they are investing in my leadership team to bring sustainable change to the school system, while creating a pathway of excellence for all students of the Reading School District.
I am truly humbled by the support of the students, parents, staff and community as we embark on this journey to equip our children with the skills to attain success in an ever changing society, first by graduating and accessing college and career opportunities. What I have learned during the first months of service is that as a school system, we have a tremendous amount of accomplishments to relish, while there are several areas that require improvement.Please know, as Superintendent, I recognize and understand the importance of our children receiving a quality education in the Reading School District, as this is not only about our students achieving graduation requirements. Education is the pathway and vehicle for our students to define their futures locally in the City of Reading, at the state level and by impacting the world.I am fully committed with “all hands on deck and boots on the ground” for our students to reap the infinite possibilities. Hence, this is a call to action to join us, as we collaborate to impact the education of our children through, academics, fostering and maintaining safe school environments, enhancing transparency through communications, building on rich community partnerships, implementing organizational effectiveness, and maintaining fiscal responsibility. Together we will be successful.
