MARSHALL The Marshall area community needs a strong workforce, and building it is going to take teamwork, said presenters at Monday’s Marshall School Board meeting.
Representatives from the Marshall school district, the Marshall Area Chamber of Commerce and the Southwest Minnesota Private Industry Council told school board members about the progress they’ve made on expanding career and technical education (CTE) in Marshall Public Schools.
“It’s taken us some time, but we’re really getting places,” said Beth Ritter, director of teaching and learning at MPS.
One path the group is pursuing is to have a Work & Learn Coordinator help connect schools and students with learning opportunities from area employers.
