Dear Families:<\/p>\n

Welcome and thank you for visiting Barack Obama School of Career and Technical Education. My name is Jason Brazil, the principal at Barack Obama SCTE. I am proud to be a part of the wonderful community of students, staff, family, and community partners. I come from a family of MPS educators, so the success and well-being of our students is near and dear to me.<\/p>\n

My passion for teaching and working with students came during m\"\"y college years when I worked in MPS Summer Camps and precollege programs. I officially began with MPS in 2008 as a paraprofessional with a promise to make a change for the better. Now in this role, I am able to stand by my word and be the best leader I can be to ensure that the students of Barack Obama SCTE thrive.<\/p>\n

Here at Barack Obama, we are guided by Milwaukee Public Schools 5 priorities for success:<\/p>\n

1. Increase Academic Achievement and Accountability<\/p>\n

2. Improve District and School Culture<\/p>\n

3. Develop Our Staff<\/p>\n

4. Ensure Fiscal Responsibility and Transparency<\/p>\n

5. Strengthen Communication and Collaboration<\/p>\n

Please join us in making sure the students of Obama SCTE get the best opportunities possible\u2013whether their path is one of technical education, college\/university, the military, or career exploration. Success will take collaboration from all of our students, staff, families, community, and community partners. I invite you all to be a part of something special, and I thank you for choosing Barack Obama SCTE.<\/p>\n

In partnership,<\/p>\n
