To MPSD Community and Staff:
Each school district in Massachusetts is required to have a
District Strategic Plan. A Strategic
Plan provides a vision, mission and values for our schools and outlines goals,
objectives and action steps that will help guide the district over the next
five years. The Plan also guides the
school district’s actions, fiscal decisions and student achievement
outcomes. Since we are in the final year
of our current five-year Strategic Plan, the Marshfield Public Schools will
work over the next few months on formulating an updated Plan.
This year, we will conduct our planning as part of a pilot
project with the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, using the
Planning for Success model. The planning process will be led by Lori Likis, a
consultant to the Department of Education. She will coordinate the six
scheduled planning sessions that will take place between February 28th and May
17th. There will be three sessions with
the district Leadership Team and there will also be three sessions with a
larger Planning Committee which will
consist of members of the Leadership Team, teachers, parents, community-members
at large, two school committee members as well as high school student
representation.
If you are interested in being considered to serve on the Planning Committee, please fill out the
attached form and either send it electronically to my assistant, Ruthann
Despier, at rdespier@mpsd.org or mail it to MPSD, 76 South River Street, Marshfield,
MA 02050 by February 3, 2017. We
appreciate and encourage your interest and will select individuals in order to
create a Planning Committee that
represents our district and community.
The Planning Team commitment will be for a minimum of three
planning sessions at the Ventress Auditorium.
Two of the meetings will take place between 9:00 AM – 12:30 PM. Those will occur on March 9th and May
17th. A third session will take place on
April 5th between 1:00 PM- 4:30 PM.
Those who are selected to serve on the Planning Committee will be
notified by February 13th.
The Strategic Plan is an extremely important component to
our school district and I am excited to work with key stakeholders in
formulating the plan that will help guide the district over the next five
years.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Jeffrey W. Granatino
Superintendent
