Salem State University, just 15 miles north of Boston, is one of the largest state universities in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and an important partner in the economic, cultural and intellectual vitality of the greater north-of-Boston region.
Located in the historic seacoast town of Salem, Massachusetts, Salem State provides a diverse community of learners and a high quality, student-centered education; one that prepares them to contribute responsibly and creatively to a global society.
Gloucester Public Schools serve approximately 3,102 students. Pre- Kindergarten through Grade 12 in a Preschool, five elementary schools, one middle school, and one comprehensive high school.
We expect to achieve that through a school system that engages in an active partnership with families and the community, is proactive in honoring diversity and meets the academic, physical, social, and emotional developmental needs of all our students.
The School Committee expects that students will experience a curriculum that is aligned to the state curriculum frameworks, and is broad, balanced, rigorous, differentiated in that it is developmentally appropriate, and relevant to the lives of students and that of the community.
