Congratulations to WSD Executive Director, Cindy Phillips, who was nominated for the 2016 Director of the Year award, given by the Utah Association of Public Charter Schools. The award is part of an annual recognition of the “Best of the Best” in the Utah charter school movement, and celebrates innovative practices that have allowed Utah charters to implement strong student centered educational programs.

The letter from the Board of UAPCS announcing Cindy’s nomination reads, in part:

We recognize the sacrifice of time and effort you have given to implement the vision and mission of your charter school. Your dedication to innovation and excellence in education has truly impacted the lives of the students in the classroom, school and community.
