Welcome to the Swampscott Public Schools Office of Teaching & Learning.  Our mission is to enhance student learning. We support the continuous improvement of our curriculum, instruction and assessment practices. We also organize professional development for staff and work with families to bring their voices to the table to inform the evolution of our educational programs.

We are in the process of developing a very different version of this website to better support the work of our staff and the engagement of our families. We hope to have this work completed by late spring 2020.

EDUCATOR RESOURCES WEBSITE  is now live for SPS educators. Visit this website to view all materials shared during the 2020-2021 Re-opening Collaboration days (8/31 to 9/15).
