Dear Students, Parents, Community, and Staff
I am so excited to welcome you to the new school year! My name is Andrew Sprang, and I am honored to serve as your new superintendent. It truly is a privilege to be able to join the outstanding school district of Mohawk Local Schools. I look forward to getting to know and work with all of you this year and the years to come.
Our focus at Mohawk needs to always be on the students. Whether it is their development as individuals, the opportunities that are provided in the classroom, the stage, the arts, agriculture, or the field of competition we will be putting their experience at the forefront. Their growth and development is the future not only for our community, but also our state and global community. We want Mohawk Local Schools to be viewed as the best district in the area that ultimately does the best for our students to prepare them for their diverse futures.
Over the course of this school year we will be working to develop a revised strategic plan for the district. Currently the district strategic plan is focused on the areas of; Student Achievement and Instructional Excellence, Communication and Community Engagement, Fiscal Stewardship, and the area of Safety and Security. In the coming months we will be asking for feedback from all of our stakeholders in order to gauge whether or not these goals are still our focus areas and then most importantly developing the specific strategies that will be used to measure attaining these goals. This will be an exciting process as we look to develop the roadmap for district success over the next 3-5 years.
I want to encourage any of you to please reach out with any questions, concerns, and feedback that you can offer us as we need to work together for all of our students to be successful. Communication will be key to our success. We will do our best to get information out to you as soon as possible in regards to things happening in the district. Your involvement in our district is invaluable to our success and attaining our goals.
Thank you for your support as I transition into this new role. I am confident that we will make this a successful year as we Prepare Today’s Students for Tomorrow’s Challenges.
Best Wishes for a successful school year,
Andrew Sprang
Superintendent
