🍎PATHWAY TO EXCELLENCE🍎 The first phase of our comprehensive reaccreditation process is just around the corner, starting later this month. Accreditation is more than just a status – it's a commitment to constant growth and improvement! During this reaccreditation process, our District will be rigorously evaluated by an impartial third party to ensure that we're meeting the highest standards in education. From policies to learning environments and cultural inclusivity, every facet of our district will be under the microscope to ensure we deliver the best to our students. The premise of accreditation aligns with our dedication to providing top-notch education and our mission to become the number one school district in the state. 👀 Watch the video for a message from Superintendent Michael Maine about this process: https://youtu.be/F-LBp22Kliw
