Located on the far western shore of Lake Superior.
The Duluth Public School serves over 8000 students in 18
schools and employs more than 1500 staff members,
ranging from teachers to support personnel.
Here, we're committed to providing high quality
education to all students.
Over the last year, we worked with school staff, families,
students and community members to create an updated three
year strategic roadmap.
The school board approved plan lays out our goals as a
district and how we plan to get there with your help.
It all starts with a district supporting every student.
We want to improve instructional practices to best
meet the needs of all of our learners.
We'll tap into the multi tier system to find strategies to
create positive
learning environments.
Students will get extra support to grow and improve through
intervention and enrichment.
We want Duluth Public Schools to be a place where everyone
feels a sense of belonging and accomplishment.
It starts with strengthening relationships and building
trust with all communities.
To get there, we're creating an equity, implementation and
accountability plan to increase our ability to think, behave,
work and lead with an equity mindset.
As part of the plan, all staff will receive
ongoing diversity, equity and inclusion training.
We're also improving our systems and processes,
resource allocation and support services.
Our school district is focused on finding and hiring highly
effective and dedicated staff to educate, support and inspire
our students to reach their full potential.
We'll also create a district budget that keeps our students
as the top priority, and we will utilize a financial
forecasting model to assist the district to plan and forecast
the district's financial future.
Finally, we're committed to providing clean,
safe environments for children and creating physical settings
that are right for learning.
We invite you to learn more about our strategic roadmap and
the role you can play in helping us get there.
