A teacher who is helping introduce a new, internationally themed curriculum at his Byram elementary school has been named as its new assistant principal, district officials announced Thursday.
Eugene Matejek, a teacher for 12 years, has been appointed as second-in-command to Principal Gene Nyitray at New Lebanon School, replacing former Assistant Principal Kristina Lawson, who left the district this spring.
New Lebanon is introducing a new International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme, part of an effort to make the 212-student elementary school a draw for magnet students from other neighborhoods.
"Mr. Matejek is a skilled teacher and instructional leader, and he has had extensive experience and training" in the I.B. program, the district wrote in a press release.
Matejek began teaching in 1998 at the Meeting House Hill School in New Fairfield. In 2001, he came to Greenwich as a third-grade teacher at the International School at Dundee, a magnet elementary school in Riverside with a popular I.B. program. In 2008, he moved to New Lebanon to work as an I.B. coordinator, helping to train fellow teachers in the specialized curriculum. Matejek has also been on numerous district committees, including one that in 2003 explored the idea of adding an I.B. program to Western Middle School.
Western began developing its own I.B. program this summer.
Matejek received a bachelor's degree in psychology in 1997, a master's in teaching in 1999 and a sixth-year certificate in administration in 2009 from Sacred Heart University in Fairfield.
A message seeking comment was left for Matejek at the school Thursday....
