Background: The Montessori Strategic Plan, which was adopted on March 28, 2019, is a framework for structural supports for our eight Montessori schools, which educate more than 4,000 students.  The Montessori Advisory Committee, which helped formulate the plan, has now shifted its efforts to support the implementation of the strategic plan and to improve, enhance, and expand high-quality Montessori education for all the children of Milwaukee.  The Montessori Strategic Plan includes long- and short-term planning. The areas of focus are curriculum and program fidelity, resource alignment, staffing and leadership, systems of communication, and facilities.

An update on the implementation of the Montessori Strategic Plan will be presented, covering items that have been completed and what is being worked on at this time, and providing an outline of future work. Included will be the MPSU pathways for Montessori training and the updated Montessori district marketing efforts.
Fiscal Impact Statement: This item does not authorize expenditures.
