School Transformation Update
As many Pittsfield folks know, the Pittsfield School District was awarded a planning grant from the Nellie Mae Education Foundation back in December to support the transformation of our middle high school from a traditional school to a student-centered learning environment.
Since that time, our Community Advisory Council, which includes many community members and community educators who have been appointed by our School Board, has developing a multi-year plan for this transformation. We have been researching effective educational practices and visiting successful, break-the-mold schools to learn how we can better serve our students and community.
Eventually, our plan will be submitted to the Nellie Mae Education Foundation with the hope that the Foundation will fund the transformation plan over six-years to help us create a student-centered education for all Pittsfield students. We will submit our plan next October and learn about the awards in this highly-competitive process in December. (more…)
