MARYSVILLE — Marysville School District Superintendent Dr. Becky Berg has invited local legislators and leaders from the Marysville and Tulalip community to a roundtable meeting to discuss current educational issues and topics of mutual interest.

“Issues surrounding the state of education have never been more pressing. This meeting will provide us an opportunity to come together and discuss the current state of education, state funding impacts, educational mandates such as TPEP (new teacher evaluation system) and the Common Core State Standards. Our children are our most valuable assets, we must all work together to provide them with the best education possible. I appreciate this time together to discuss these and other important issues” said Dr. Berg.

Participants will meet in the district’s board room beginning at 11 a.m. on Monday, Jan. 6. Invited guests will hear a brief overview on the district followed by discussion, guest comments, and a time for questions and answers.

Although only invited guest will participate in the discussion, the meeting is open to the public and there will be a designated seating area for those who would like to attend to view and listen to the process.
