Mechanicville CSD School Improvement Site

School Improvement

In Mechanicville City School District is rooted in the aforementioned District Priorities and Values.

These are woven throughout all of our work, as a Community of Learners.

This website will engage all those within our Community of Learners through equitable exposure to our initiatives.

Our mission statement: "We will create a positive culture by empowering staff to focus on learning in a collaborative environment to achieve agreed upon results while celebrating student and staff success."

This website is to serve as a foundation and communicative tool for all stakeholders within the Mechanicville City School District.

The site is intended to highlight, build upon, and reinforce the improvement efforts within our school district.

There are presently two initiatives in Mechanicville, CULTURE and STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT. This site will encompass those, in every facet. Click the button below to further explore what these two initiatives encompass.
