Warrensburg-Latham Schools have done an overhaul of its mission statement.

Superintendent Cheryl Warner explains this was about a year's process and they want to see not just staff and administration involved in carrying out the mission statement, but students and families as well.

According to Warner, they have tried to do a lot of outreach to make sure everyone is aware of the new mission statement and why it is important to the district.

Many districts face a variety of polarizing topics, often centered around the curriculum. Warner admits this was a topic recently and so they set expectations on how to communicate when it comes to topics not everyone sees eye-to-eye on.

Warner believes Warrensburg-Latham Schools does a good job of analyzing its data and using it to make curriculum decisions and that is part of its new mission statement.
