Dear MMSD Staff,
We know that our vision as a district doesn’t come to life without the very best staff, who are fully supported in a positive work environment.
We are proud to be one of the only districts in the state to develop our handbook through a collaborative process with our employees. Our goal is that this handbook is a comprehensive resource for all staff, which outlines the rights and responsibilities of both staff and administration.
This handbook was built through discussions of a jointly appointed oversight committee, made up of district and employee representatives. The oversight group used the results of a staff survey to gather information and used our current collective bargaining agreements as the foundation for their discussion. We are glad that we could develop this handbook through that collaborative process.
That’s because we believe as a district that the best way to achieve results for children is to work together with our employees. We have skilled, dedicated staff and we hope this handbook supports you in doing your best work.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Cheatham
