    According to their website, Marshall Elementary Schools that they the 2012-2013 academic year began with change, an entirely new leadership team. While this team also demonstrates compassion and determination, the bigger focus is on developing Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) and providing teachers with expertise on understanding and tracking data to inform instruction. The PLCs are centered on the data team process, intervention, and the use of PBIS to maintain and support classroom management. It is through this improved team that they will strengthen education and motivating students to learn.
