ISU and Bluffton

Dr. Hoffert, Superintendent for Warsaw Community Schools, is proud to announce that through federal ESSER funds, WCS was able to provide scholarships to 53 employees through collaborations with Bluffton University and Indiana State University. These investments in our employees will directly impact our students through newly learned skills while also assisting to recruit and retain exceptional teachers and staff within WCS. 

Dr. Hoffert thanked the teachers and employees for taking the journey of getting the degrees. Dr. Hoffert acknowledged, “I know Warsaw Community Schools is coming in and taking care of the tuition part of it, but you’re investing your time. You’re investing time away from your family to hone your skills through these different master’s programs. So thank you for doing that. I hope you got off to a great first step of the journey.”

Board President Heather Reichenbach agreed, adding, "Not only are the teachers and employees working during the day, but they’re also putting in energy at night to not only to expand their expertise, but to do it for the students they work with every day."
