Vision of the
Graduate and Strategic Planning Community Engagement
The Manchester Essex Regional School District
continues to be recognized as one of the highest performing school districts in
Massachusetts. I am very proud of the wonderful work our dedicated faculty and staff do every day to support the social, emotional and intellectual growth of our students, and I am very excited about MERSD’s future.
Looking
to build upon the success of our program and to prepare students for the
workplace of tomorrow, MERSD has begun a two-year strategic planning process to
define our roadmap for creating a future-focused education program.
Phase
one focuses on developing a Vision of the Graduate. Following
the blueprint from the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC),
this process seeks to define what students should know and be able to do as a
result of a Manchester Essex education and examines the question - What are
the skills and dispositions students will require to find success?
In phase
two (Spring 2020), the profile will serve as the driver for the development of
a multi-year plan that establishes a set of goals and strategic initiatives to
achieve the Vision of the Graduate 2033. We will be engaging the community in a conversation about our future needs during February & March
2020 and will present the plan in the Fall 2020-2021 school year.
Watch your email for our survey starting February 24th!
World Café Focus Groups will be held the week of March 30th
