But functioning under different arrangements, SEZP schools not only receive from the district a set of key supports - from buildings and maintenance to transportation and information technology - they can also select optional services from a wide variety of district offerings that fit their specific needs. This allows SEZP schools to use the district’s unique and efficient services when needed - and to opt out when their priorities point them in a different direction. SEZP schools are district, unionized schools that are built differently, based on the Zone’s clearly defined partnerships with the Springfield Public Schools district, the Springfield Education Association teachers’ union, and the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. These unique, trusted partnerships allow SEZP schools to respond to what their school community needs, while staying in sync with the district, union, and state. One word has driven all of these SEZP successes: partnership. More voice at each school for teachers in the Springfield Education Association teachers’ union? Yes.Ī surge in representation of people of color teaching and leading at Springfield schools, a priority of the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education? Yes. Faster innovation and promising outcomes for students and families in the Springfield Public Schools district? Yes.
