Weber School District welcomes Dr. Bryan Becherini as its new Assessment, School Improvement, Grants & Research Director. Dr. Becherini joins the district from Tooele School District, where he held a leadership role overseeing school improvement initiatives and student achievement. Prior to his administrative positions, he served as an educator in various roles, including classroom teacher, instructional coach, and assistant principal. Dr. Becherini earned his Ed.D. in Education Leadership & Policy from the University of Utah.
“I am most excited to develop a school improvement framework that can be utilized across all schools to ensure Weber School District is a top performing district in the state,” Dr. Becherini shared. “As part of that framework, I intend to work with principals on developing data informed goals that cultivate high levels of learning for all students.”
Dr. Becherini also expressed his desire to increase data utilization among district administrators. “I would like to see Weber School District administrators utilize data on a more consistent basis to inform their actions when it comes to continuous improvement,” he said.
Regarding teacher support, Dr. Becherini emphasized the importance of data and collaboration. “Support for teachers will come in a variety of ways including data mining, data analysis, and data informed goal setting,” he explained. “In collaboration with the various departments on the Teaching and Learning team, we will strive to ensure teachers feel supported when it comes to assessment and school improvement.”
With a strong educational background and a proven track record, Dr. Becherini brings valuable expertise to Weber School District. Notably, he and his family are long-time residents of the community. His wife, Angelique, is a mental health therapist for the district, and their children attend Weber School District schools.
