Workgroups
We have also established a district-based educational workgroup to continue the work of the initial Visioning Team that proposed this project in 2019. Much like the strategic planning process, we will be mapping out what will drive our students’ educational experiences to guide the long-term development of education and facilities for the Scituate Public Schools. A culture of excellence and collaboration are the foundational pillars of this workgroup.
The educational workgroup comprises approximately 30 people from various groups within Scituate: educators, administrators, school committee members, parents, and students.
