WJHS National Board Certified Staff

National Board Certification was created so that educators, like professionals in other fields, can achieve distinction by demonstrating that they meet high standards. To achieve certification, candidates must complete a series of rigorous exercises that include the preparation of portfolios, analyses of student work, videotapes, and analyses of their work with students and of student learning. Candidates also complete a series of written assessments on their knowledge of their particular subject area and their understanding of how they use this knowledge to have the most positive impact on student learning and development.
