On November 9, 2022, the Marshall Board of Education welcomed questions, solutions, and expectations from 48 district stakeholder participants ranging from high school students to long-time residents. Participants reflected on a recap of the ‘21 November Community Conversation, learned what the 40 study team participants, representing four study teams, recommended to the Board of Education on July 6, 2022, gained understanding on what has been implemented in Marshall Public Schools since November 2021, viewed contents of the draft 3-5 Year Strategic Design, and then identified essential priorities to be included as the Board of Education finalizes the district’s 3-5 Year Strategic Plan.
From 15 identified priorities, the following are the top three priorities participants want to ensure are addressed in the 3-5 Year Strategic Plan:
-
Keep the focus on student growth and achievement
-
Continue to improve community engagement and communication
-
Retain high quality staff
Participants gathered in the beautiful high school commons, enjoyed snacks and desserts prepared by Arm-Jack Homestead, Marshall’s HOSA students provided childcare, and translation services were provided by Carolyn Stoughton and Rene Guillen. Drew Howick facilitated the group discussions.
