Marlin ISD

 QUESTIONAIRE  SUMMARY

The strengths and challenges confronting Marlin ISD were consistent in both the submitted survey forms and group interviews.  

Generally, MISD is in good shape financially. There is a belief that MISD can show improvement with the right leadership in place.

General Strengths : Teacher/Staff, Finances, Community support for a better education. Small town.

General Concerns: Communication, Morale, Future finances, Leadership, Teacher retention, Negative perception.

It should be noted that every community has diverse expectations and desires regarding a new CEO. No individual is ever able to meet or address  all the expectations of a community that has divergent opinions and beliefs, regardless of how homogeneous the community might appear to be.  To this end, the board should not build up expectations that it will be able to find someone who excels in or even possesses all of the criteria.  The task that the board and TASB face is to find someone with many of theses desired skills, characteristics, experience, and personality necessary to address the opportunities and challenges awaiting the next leader of Marlin ISD.
