Maury County Public Schools Page 42018-2023 Strategic Plan – FINALBackgroundHistoryMaury County is located in middle Tennessee and is the southernmost county within theNashville Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA). Rooted in a foundation of agriculture, butbustling with economic growth from Advanced Manufacturing, Maury County is currently the5th fastest growing county in the Tennessee and ranked 3rd for incoming investment. MauryCounty is has three incorporated cities: Mount Pleasant, Spring Hill, and Columbia, which is thecounty seat.With a population of around 88,000 people (of which 20,000 are children) the county ranks 44thamong Tennessee’s 95 counties in terms of child welfare. (Source: Annie E. Casey Kids CountData, 2017.) Despite recent improvements in economic indicators, poverty remains a challengefor Maury County families. In 2016, 19.4% of the county’s children were rated as living inpoverty, and a further 6,800 students qualify as economically disadvantaged across the county.The school district is comprised of 21 schools serving more than 12,000 kindergarten throughtwelfth grade students. It operates 17 traditional elementary, middle and high schools; three K12 unit schools, one non-traditional high school; and one alternative school. A non-traditionalhigh school was added in 2013 to offer a safety net for students struggling with completing highschool. The district offers 11 grant funded Pre-K programs and five Special Education Pre-Kprograms. These schools serve a diverse population from schools with fewer than 35% studentsreceiving free/reduced lunches in some schools to an excess of 80% of students in others. Theteacher:student ratio in Maury County is 1:15, less than the state average of 1:16. (Source:Public School Review, accessed 8/16/17.)Maury County is considered a highly diverse school district with a diversity score of 0.41. (TNaverage is 0.27. More about Diversity Scores can be learned here.) More than 30% of thestudent population is considered a minority, with most of these being black students. However,the Hispanic population is growing. English Language Learners make up approximately 2% ofthe student population.Educationally, Maury County is currently ranked as number 64 in the state in reading and mathproficiency and high school graduation rates. Chronic absenteeism is at very high levels, with31.7% of students being chronically absent from school during the 2015-16 school year. Only 5counties in Tennessee had worse rates for chronic absenteeism that year. (Source: Annie E.Casey Kids Count Data, 2017.)

Maury County Public Schools Page 72018-2023 Strategic Plan – FINALPrograms and ActivitiesMaury County Public Schools has a number of initiatives and programs it is currently engaged inwhich are focused on preparing students to be college and career ready upon graduating fromhigh school. Several of these are: Project Based Learning - adjusting instruction in the classroom to be more holistic,digital, and real-world with reduced lecture, textbooks, and worksheets.School-based Professional Development Coaches – each school has at least three ofthese to help influence Professional Learning Communities, implementing Project BasedLearning, and using data to inform instruction.Professional Learning Communities – adults working together to benefit studentlearning; guides teachers to collaborate, share best practices, review data and discussstrategies to help maximize student learningData Informatics – teachers/principals using real time data to make the best decisionsfor students; this includes performance “scorecards” at both the district and school levelreporting metrics related to 7 keys to College and Career Readiness which wereidentified in 2015 through consultation with students, parents, educators and thecommunity.Digital Integration Plan for Learning on Mobile and Accessibility (DIPLOMA) – Thedistrict is implementing a laptop based 1:1 program where ALL students in grades 3 -12will take district purchased technology back and forth between home and school. K-2students will use technology in the classroom. This plan is to be fully completed andoperational by 2026.Implementing Wi-Fi in all schools – 100% of schools enabled with wifi with about 50%of the schools currently upgraded to 10gb; the remaining 50% of schools should befinished on/before November 2017.The need for servicesIn an era of great global change, public school districts face the challenge of preparing today’sstudents for an unknown and uncertain future. Today’s kindergarten students will pursuecareers that have yet to be imagined. This is also a time of great financial challenges, both forschools and for families. In Maury County, 85% of children attend public schools.Without a quality, innovative and preparatory education, it is unlikely that these children will beable to compete in the job market as adults. This would likely lead to a severe economicdownturn in Maury County, as the industries that require little or no education are ceasing toexist and are increasingly difficult to sustain. Without leaders to attract industry to the county,successful students will leave the county and take their skills elsewhere. Loss of these skills andcommunity members would be a major threat to the overall success of Maury County.
