Event Description
Dr. William Hite, Superintendent of the School District of Philadelphia, will visit Drexel University's School of Education for an open conversation on public education in the City of Brotherly Love. This is an excellent opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to "pick the brain" of the head of one of the nation's largest and most diverse school district.
With a focus on equity, innovation and quality, Dr. William R. Hite serves as Superintendent of The School District of Philadelphia, the largest public school system in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Since joining the School District in June 2012, Dr. Hite has worked to create a system of great schools in every neighborhood. Under his leadership, the School District has opened new innovative high schools, expanded successful school models, launched in-district turnarounds and redesigned schools in partnership with communities. His overall focus remains on strengthening all elementary and secondary school offerings.
