Congratulations to Glastonbury High School Latin teacher, Mr. Joey Meyer! Now entering his 21st year of teaching in our district, Mr. Meyer is a dynamic educator who teaches with heart, purpose, and charisma.
Mr. Meyer is known for his lively, student-centered Latin classes. Beyond the classroom, his commitment to building a positive and connected community is evident in all he does. Mr. Meyer has inspired countless students to deepen their understanding of our complex world and the people in it.
Mr. Meyer was also selected as a CT State Teacher of the Year semifinalist. Nine of our last eleven Glastonbury Public Schools teachers of the year were selected as semifinalists.
The Board of Education's current long-term facilities plan is set to expire in 2027. A new 10-year plan for school space is under development. The new plan will address short and long-term solutions to elementary school space issues and the need to modernize many of our schools through building renovations.
This is a complex issue with no easy answers. The Board is still in the early research stage, and no decisions have been made. We encourage you to learn more. Please visit our Facilities Planning page for current information. We will continue to keep you updated on the issue and, as always, we welcome in-person and written public comments.
New guidelines for grade 6-12 iPad use are in place for the 2025-2026 school year. These guidelines complement those in place for grades K-5. Click here to learn more about the district's Grade 6-12 iPad Guidelines.
