Introduction
The Marshall Public Schools has taken the opportunity the Michigan Legislature has provided us in 2011 to further our efforts at improving the instructional practice in the classroom and across the district. We are leveraging our resources (time, talents, and treasures) to ensure that every student reaches his/her full potential in obtaining the necessary knowledge and skills for the 21st Century. To do so, we are ensuring that every teacher and administrator receives an annual evaluation linked directly to student learning that informs every educator what his/her strengths and growth areas are and provides each with the appropriate tools for continuous quality improvement.
