Welcome to Scarborough, Maine, USA. 

I want to express my sincerest gratitude to those community members, students, parents, staff, and municipal, civic and business leaders who participated in Scarborough Public School District's Community Dialogue on October 12, 2011.

The Community Dialogue was created to ensure that our current and future action plans are responsive to the needs of Scarborough students, their parents, and our schools and community at large. The dialogue process is consistent with a model of local accountability - one that is student centered and designed to deliver on our community's expectations. The important considerations that emerged from the Community Dialogue will allow us to more clearly articulate the organization's long term goals and to better target the key areas for immediate improvement. These improvement themes, together with important student data and knowledge of best educational practices, will lead to the creation of an 18-Month Improvement Strategy for the Scarborough Public Schools.
