Superintendent’s Message
Dear Dover Public School Community,
It is with great honor and humility that I assume the role of Superintendent for our esteemed district. Dover has a proud history of educational excellence, and I am dedicated to upholding this tradition while fostering an inclusive and supportive environment for all our students, staff, and families.
Education is a collaborative journey. During this time of transition, rest assured that my primary focus will be on ensuring stability, promoting academic achievement, and prioritizing the well-being of every member of our school community. TOGETHER, we will build on our strengths, address challenges, and seize growth opportunities.
My educational career spans 19 years. I began as a mathematics teacher in Orange, NJ, where I promoted student-led discussions, educational independence, and multicultural programs. These experiences inspired my transition into administration, where I emphasized community engagement and team-building with a "students first" philosophy.
Over the past four years as a principal in Dover, I have been deeply involved in our community's success. Together, we achieved recognition as a 2024 School State of Character, ranked in the top 40% of New Jersey middle schools by U.S. News & World Report, and received a Promising Practice Award from Character.org. My goal is to continue this positive trajectory through collaboration with all stakeholders.
I am always available and encourage open communication and collaboration. Your feedback, ideas, and involvement are invaluable as we work together to create our students' best educational experiences.
Sincerely,
Luis A. Jaime,
Superintendent
